...........................................................................Thursday 17th April 2008John Power
(The La's and Cast).From the 'legendary' Liverpool band The La's and later of Cast. John Power will be playing a solo acoustic show. Which will feature his new material as well as some tracks by The La's and Cast.The La's have been cited as one of the most influential bands to come out of Liverpool since The Beatles. Their one and only album became a bench mark for class indie pop prior to the 'Britpop' explosion. After the demise of The La's, he went on to take charge of Cast, a formidable live four-piece with whom he’d sell bewildering amounts of records (1995’s All Change was famously the biggest and fastest selling debut album in the history of the Polydor label). Whether on the charts, on magazine covers or headlining at the Glastonbury festival, Power the pop star was a phenomenon that lasted four long-players until 2002.
But he is back now with a new album and as he says “These are the most comfortable, wind-in-my-sails recordings I’ve done,” he states. “It’s folk music, grassroots music. I could only have written this now, ‘cos I think you need a certain amount of living to write certain things, y’know? I feel like I’m only just starting to write and play the guitar. Support comes from Ryan Madden of Keighley band The Angel Chain Diaries.
