Paper Dress Presents: COFFEE POT DRIVE / HOOP DRIVER / HAPPY GRAVEYARD ORCHESTRA / BIRDMAN CULTURE

Paper Dress Presents an evening of wonderful live music from our unique shop window stage in Hackney Central. On Saturday 7 May we welcome…

COFFEE POT DRIVE
https://www.facebook.com/CoffeePotDrive/
You’d be forgiven for thinking this London based blues band had just crawled out of the hot and still waters of a Mississippi bayou with the hot, sticky and gritty blues they lay down.

Infectious, original music that will get you stomping your feet and sweating it out!

HOOP DRIVER
https://www.facebook.com/hoopdriver/
Their sound has been compared to everything from eighties post-punk – Ian Dury, The Minutemen, through to The Pixies, Eddy Current Suppression Ring, The Black Keys and Band of Skulls. Lexi, Al & Van bring you influences from dance, funk, 60’s psychedelia and experimental rock and invite you to London’s sonic underbelly.

‘They’re grrrreat!’ BBC London
‘Hoopdriver just have something – we love it!’ The Guardian

HAPPY GRAVEYARD ORCHESTRA

In a nutshell: happiness, death and experiments on the same stage!

Ivan Perilli (bass and cryptic vocals)
Saif Ur-Rehman (steampunk guitar!)
Debbie Teo (oboe and pitched percussion)
Kasjusz Lipkowski (saxophones)
Gabriella Graziano (vocals)
Pablo Perez Vich (drums)

BIRDMAN CULTURE
https://www.facebook.com/birdmanculture/
Snatched from an unhatched egg the shimmering spray of glam rock guitar spattered over a Mersey-beat backbone, with heavy riffage & gritty vocals, a heart full of hate and a soul of stories; spawns the rhythm and grunge London 4 piece
