TAKING THE MIC VII: Festival Finale

Friday 31st August 2007

  

  • JoJo Sutherland: Compere: ‘Deliciously cruel……The best antidote to mewling rugrats’ (The Herald)
  • Colin Asquith: armed only with his voice and an acoustic guitar, Colin pushes well known songs in directions they were probably never meant to go.......
  • Andrew C Ferguson: a rare solo spot from a Writers' Bloc stalwart.
  • Norman Lamont: Not to be confused with the former Chancellor of the exchequer, the REAL Norman Lamont, hailing originally from Ayr, has been living in Edinburgh since 1990. His songs have won acclaim at song competitions locally and nationwide. He has played support to John Renbourne, Michael Chapman, John Cooper Clarke, the Coal Porters and Ballboy.
  • Indigo Rose: ‘Soulful, jazz-tinged music combined with an angelic voice … one of the top female performers in Edinburgh’ (OOTB 2007 reviewer)
  • Lindsay Sugden: Lindsay is a girl of the countryside displaced to the city.  She wrote a great deal of her music whilst camping out in a remote corner of Iceland for weeks on end collecting samples of mud...  it seems that the subconscious influence of the Icelandic elves, and the other wild mountainous places she visits emerge through her mystical, ethereal music.  
  • Tommy: Local singer/songwriter with Fringe experience including the Tommy Sheridan Chat Show and entered the Scottish Comedian of the Year contest 2007 - Scotland's answer to Half Man Half Biscuit.  'Cheeky' (The Sun), 'Enthralling' (The Sunday Herald).
  • Mystery Guests
