A strange evening in Hackney on Tuesday with Sunset Sons appearing on a Japanese TV Show to be screened on New Year’s Eve – included a countdown to midnight too! The New Year’s World Rock Festival is the longest running Television programme in the world – and is the Japanese equivalent of Jools Holland’s Hootenanny – a series of gigs filmed in New York, Tokyo, Seoul, Shanghai, Los Angeles, Tai Pei and London and screened every New Year’s Eve on Fuji TV in Japan.
Some great up and coming bands including Abjects and Yuk playing alongside Sunset Sons who were sounding tighter than ever – tracks from the new EP “No Bad Days” going down really well to the audience here. Available for download here
Geordie drummer Jed confirmed that they hope to back in The Alps around the second week of January for 6 dates – then they’re back for a London date on 19 Jan, already Sold Out!
