Music on the menu at cafe

Mar 3 2009 by Andrew Welsh, Perthshire Advertiser Tuesday

A DIET of prime acoustic punk cuts will be on the menu at a tiny Perth eaterie tomorrow night.

Poppies Cafe in the High Street is hosting an intimate acoustic session headed up by one-man hayseed hardcore exponent Tragical History Tour.

Other tasty morsels will also be served up by epic introspective tunesmiths The Barents Sea, featuring former members of Fair City mosh squads Four Star and Allergo, along with passionate post-hardcore Alyth rockers From Hope To Despair and new discordant post-pop duo Algernon Doll, from Perth.

The gig has been put together by Make-That-A-Take Records’ Fair City supremo Deeker Johnston.

There’s more on the bands involved at www.myspace.com/tragicalhistorytourmusic, www.myspace.com/barentssea, www.myspace.com/fromhopetodespair

Doors at Poppies open at 7.30pm tomorrow, with entry by donation.
