Steve Ignorant’s Slice Of Life new song S.A.D. Steve: “Anyone that suffers from depression or S.A.D. will probably recognise what I’m talking about. Hope it helps people to know that they are not alone.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3eVyxFQE9Y
Check out Steve Ignorant’s Slice Of Live on Iggy Pop’s BBC 6 radio show where he played Stretford Blue and SAD on 22nd July 2018 https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0b6ppqc
Only 4 weeks to go before Slice Of Life (postpunk kitchen sink music that kicks you in the gut) hits the stage with The Cravats (a sax-riddled dada punk combo) and Rubella Ballet (a powerful hit of vibrant colour in the punk world).
Limited signed posters, designed by The Shend, will be available at the gig.
Just having a couple of weeks of before our final gigs of the year in October and November. We’ll be playing with some amazing bands and at very different but great venues. See you there.

October:
5th – Islington Assembly Hall, London
26th – The Grapes, Hereford (CANCELLED-sadly another venue in Hereford that closed their doors)
I really enjoyed talking to Wayne Carey from Louder Than Words about the Islington gig on 5th October with the Membranes, Cravats and Wolfhounds, about books and other stuff.
Me with Neil Walker aka Hotrod Hector. He went Saturday night and I heard Sunday morning – sounds like a film – see you on the other side mate and have that pint waiting for me. We’ll be in great company -Aretha Franklin is on her way.
