Peggy Sue Live
So, last night the wonderful Peggy Sue playing here.
Peggy Sue have been one of my favourite bands for years now, and recently they signed a record deal with the rather wonderful Wichita Recordings (Bloc Party, Los Campesinos!, First Aid Kit & many more) which see's them release their debut album 'Fossils And Other Phantoms' on the 5th April.
To celebrate it they are playing a massive show at The Garage on the 29th of March and you can get tickets here so to have them come and play such an intimate & unique show here at The Old Queen's Head was very special.
Similar to when First Aid Kit played here in December, they took it as a chance to play their debut album live from start to finish. This is quite a task for an act to do, as very rarely are all the tracks on a bands album made to be played live - and especially not in the order they are on a record.
As you can imagine, a live set is structured especially for a live performance, so the songs are placed to work an audience, with the set building into a crescendo, so to throw that out the window and play an album live track for track is a mighty task - and also something that you won't see them do again - needless to say they did it with ease (aside from some dubious on-stage chat!).
Here some pics:

And for the more musically geeky of you here is their set list (and of course album track list) with a breakdown of what instruments they all played.

Advent Blog - Day Eight - First Aid Kit Live Pics & Download
So on Monday we hosted the exclusive live playback of First Aid Kit’s debut album. The two Swedish girls, backed by a drummer, graced The Old Queen’s Head stage to treat us to a track by track live performance of The Big Black and The Blue, which is to be released next year.
Amongst the audience was a mixture of their own fans who were lucky enough to get the few tickets that were available on the door, and a cross section of record labels, press companies, journalists and fellow musicians (the lovely Katy & Olly from Peggy Sue to name but a few). The show was also being filmed and recorded live – so all in all quite a big show for them to do and us to host.
Regardless of the pressure of the show and appearing slightly nervous on stage they delivered their folk-pop beautifully, leaving the 100+ people in the room completely silent except for the raucous rounds of applause between songs.
They ended their set with an undeniable encore, stepping of the stage and singing their customary cover of Fleet Foxes’ ‘Tiger Mountain Peasant Song’, in the heart of the audience.
As a thank you to us they have let me post this link

Which will take you to a site where you can download free tracks and watch a huge selection of their video’s.
