Kathy Lette’s Girls’ Night Out October 4th
Kathy Lette invites you to her new show, Girls’ Night Out. It’s a psychological strip tease taking us from Puberty Blues to Menopause Blues, with tales of love, lust, men, marriage, pregnancy, childbirth, mastitis, sexist bosses, teenage-daughter-wrangling, ageing, toy boys, making the Queen laugh, hiding Julian Assange in her attic, tongue kissing Prince William and Close Encounters of the George Clooney Kind, en route.
Turin Brakes October 5th
After an impressive 19 years together, seven studio albums and over a million records sold worldwide, they might be excused a bit of downtime. But no, the estimable London 4-piece Turin Brakes released their eighth studio album ‘Invisible Storm’ in January 2018 on Cooking Vinyl. Invisible Storm is big-picture music played on a small screen, refracted through lyrics that embrace the personal and the universal.
