Can you remember when Beck was cool? I know its a struggle to remember that far back. Well, i guess the mellow gold was pretty good, but the only album of his i really listen to anymore is One foot in the grave. It was released in 1994, by K records, and was produced by Calvin Johnson, with some added vocals also (the guy with the incredibly deep voice on ‘I get lonesome’.

Calvin plays a solo gig in Dublin on the 30th of July, in the Exchange, in Temple bar. Starts at 6 and 6 euro in, so not a tough choice.

Also, the man that seems to be everywhere at the moment, Neil Hannon is playing in the Olympia on the 30th of September. He’s a bit of a national treasure, so always worth heading along to.
