Out of all the acts who played DDJY! in 2008 few bands surprised people more than London band Hatcham Social. They were relatively unknown when they played last January, and to an extent still are, but they managed to win many new fans on their trip to Wrexham with an excellent set of alternative pop tunes with a psychedelic, shoegaze edge. They now return to Central Station on Thursday February 12th with a lot more acclaim to their name and some new songs that are their finest to date. New demo’s such as ‘Wild Creatures’ and ‘Give Me the Gift’ and past singles ‘So So Happy Making’ and ‘Til the Dawn’ signal that this band are truly one of the best underground bands in Britain right now. They’ve already released a mini album in Japan and have been recording their debut album proper with producer Tim Burgess of The Charlatans; set for release this March.
Make sure you snap up tickets soon for this gig as they have already been selling fast!
Local support on the night comes from brand new Chester act Tell The King who will be making their debut live performance; early demos show signs of great promise so make sure you arrive early to watch the beginnings of a band set for bigger things.
