Kevin Hewick and Misterlee
The Tin Angel, Coventry, May 5th 2004
The Tin Angel is a group grope intimate venue - and, as you get closer to your inner lady-boy what better soundtrack than Leicester’s most flipped out mood manipulators, freshly returned from a victorious New York tour.

Cheerfully unconcerned as to weather YOU like it or not jazz guitar meets wah-wah viola as Lee plays with his toys - twiddling knobs and making funny noises.

Find out what the NYC Anti-folk folk already know - these Misters avant-garde for Eng-er-land.


 And Kevin Hewick?

There were impersonations of Kate Melua, a claim that he was in fact Nick Drake and had faked his own death in 1974 and the live debut of three new songs.

  Mainline Drag
  Bad Samantha
  Something To Do On The Bus
  The Art Of Giving A Toss
  Let's Find A Quiete Place
  The Loneliest Kind Of Lonely
  Her Slate Wiped Clean
  Run To Where Only A Woman Can Run
  Haystack

This was a very combative set. Mainline Drag a freeform take on Dylan 1965. Bad Samantha and Her Slate... seethed with sexual tension while Let's find..., Loneliest... and Run to... were the lyrically tender contrast. Haystack, the ancient KH classic once recorded with New Order, was as weirdly vital as ever. A stellar set of timeless, magical songs - I should know. I was there.
