reccomended gigs june-july

A little bit quiet this summer but in addition to the bands Permanent Vibes tempts me with, I hope to visit The SummerTyne festival this year, if only to get on the Americana Boat i've heard so much about. Also see Narc Fest, where we have Kissaway Trail playing with a load of other bands for free around Ouseburn Valley.
