Dave Knight and I will be showcasing our new band UnicaZürn next month, Saturday 3rd July, at the Avant-Garde Festival, Schiphorst, Germany. It's a wonderful occasion, organised by Jean-Hervé Peron of German rock legends Faust, located in a picturesque rural setting, and run by great people. Please do try to attend if it's remotely possible, I'm sure you'll find the whole event magnificent. The fantastic No-Wave genius Lydia Lunch and the legendary Gallon Drunk will also be playing - further details at www.avantgardefestival.de
Dave and I played the festival three years ago with our improvisation group The Amal Gamal Ensemble, and we can't recommend it enough - it's a chance to hang out and chat with friendly and interesting people in a relaxed and intimate atmosphere, and if you do make it, will probably go down in your memory as a genuine vacation rather than a gig! Hope to see a few of you there...
