5 May – Jon Gomm + Gallo £4
Jon Gomm is
a singer-songwriter and acoustic solo performer, with an incredible virtuoso
guitar style. He uses one acoustic guitar to create drum sounds, basslines
and sparkling melodies all at the same time. His live performances have
been consistently leaving audiences amazed and delighted. Jon Gomm has
to be seen to be believed.
“Gallo
are music college graduates, and it shows in their inventiveness and craftsmanship,
but they have great pop sensibilities too. All in all this is phenomenal
stuff, both in their genre-defying cocktail of influences, and in their
stunningly-good songs. Sadly, this band are probably too good to get signed,
so you'll have to go to their next gig instead." John Gillespie,

6 May – Virtuoso + The Children £3
Virtuoso are
another band many of you told us you wanted to see again. Great vocals,
great riffs and great songs. It’s great to have this talented rock/indie
band back on at the Globe. Hailing from Tameside, Virtuoso won the Manchester
Young, Gifted and Green Battle of the Bands in 2005.
“Could
easily headline at T-in the Park” YGG Judges.
The Children
remember that R n B means rhythm and blues not ring tones and bling.
“So many
bands trot out the line that they just enjoy playing their music, but
this band clearly do. And I suspect if they were scrawny pale Americans
playing exactly the same set they’d already have a six figure contract”.
Cath Aubergine - Manchester Music

Sat
10 June - Mike Walters Presents - Michael Chapman £7 tickets available
now!
The guitar
and voice of Michael Chapman first became known on the Cornish Folk Circuit
in 1967. Playing a blend of atmospheric and autobiographical material
he established a reputation for intensity and innovation. Signed to EMI's
Harvest label he recorded a quartet of classic albums. LPs Like 'Rainmaker'
and 'Wrecked Again' defined the melancholic observer role Michael was
to make his own, mixing intricate guitar instrumentals with a full band
sound. The influential album 'Fully Qualified Survivor', featuring the
guitar of Mick Ronson and Rick (Steeleye Span) Kemp's bass, was John Peel's
favourite album of 1970. 'Survivor' featured the Chapman 'hit', "
Postcards of Scarborough",
a characteristically tenderly sour song recounting the
feelings of nostalgia and regret.
A lively and
accomplished improviser, Michael gained a reputation for re-working material,
both before an audience and on record. Songs were seen as standards, themes
to be explored, extended and varied on stage and in the studio. The Don
Nix produced 'Savage Amusement' featured versions of the Chapman songs
"Shuffleboat River Farewell" and "It Didn't Work Out".
Different musicians and a different sound breathed new life into earlier
material, showing Michael to be a jazz musician in spirit if not in sound.
In response
to public demand Michael recorded a solo album 'Almost Alone' presenting
the relaxed eclectic mix that was a Chapman club gig. The '80's saw Michael
back with Rick Kemp. Touring as a duo they released the live album 'Original
Owners', whose version of "Shuffleboat River Farewell", stripped
back to guitar and bass, showed that old dogs could teach new tricks.
Anyone hearing the anger of the newer material, coupled with the volume
and energy of the Chapman Kemp band Savage Amusement, formed in the mid
'80's, was left in no doubt that here was an elder statesman growing more
acid, rather than mellower with age. After a period of reflection and
lower profile releases, Michael captured the mood of the time with his
'87 album Heartbeat, a groundbreaking thematic album featuring a continuous
38-minute piece of music. This was an ambition made possible
by the advent of CDs.
Experiments
with sequencers and sampling on the 90's track "Geordies Down The
Road", an anthem to the death of employment in the North East, assaulted
the listener with foundry atmospherics and industrial guitars, showing
that Michael wasn't standing still. The albums 'Still Making Rain' and
'95's 'Navigation' presented a man whose world-weary voice, given a patina
by life and hard living, delivered sensitive, emotional songs. While aware
of his past, reinterpreting his hit "Postcards of Scarborough",
Michael looked to the future. The playing was more considered than ever
before. Fewer notes and space for music to breathe, gave songs like "The
Mallard" and "It Ain't So" an almost hymn like intensity.
1995 also saw the publishing of Michael's first novel 'Firewater Dreams',
a thinly veiled autobiography, which fleshed out some of his highly personal
songs and explored his themes of regret, travel and loneliness.
Reviews of
his recent album 'Navigation' show the high regard for
Michael Chapman, Mojo 11/95 'Twenty one albums and he is still amazing',
Q 12/95 '****
(four stars out of a possible five) and this best album in years.
Dreaming Out
Loud followed again to good reviews. Twisted Road with the brilliant 'Memphis
in Winter' closed the century with reviewers calling it a return to the
standard of Fully Qualified Survivor 30 years earlier.The new century
brought two live albums, a series of reissues and retrospectives with
the Growing Pains series, documenting early live recordings and archive
material. Travels in the USA and a love of photography informed Americana
and Americana 2, instrumental snapshots with stunning sleeves and breathtaking
guitar playing. This self-styled old white blues guy from Yorkshire is
one of the most under-rated heroes of our time. With his uniquely English
melancholic perspective and emotive guitar style he deserves wider recognition.'
