Meursault + Rob St John + Jill O’Sullivan & Jenny Reeve + Jill O’Sullivan & Jenny Reeve at The Queen's Hall, Edinburgh on 7 Jul 2012 - http://www.last.fm/event...
Location: The Queen's Hall 7pm: Doors Open Time TBC: 1st artist onstage We are currently waiting for the finalised schedule for this performance and will update this page as soon as possible (this is normally on the afternoon of the performance). Edinburgh's Meursault are one of the most compelling live bands to come out of Scotland for years, able to switch from the fragile and wounded to the cacophonous in the blink of an eye. This is the launch concert for their third full-length album, Something For the Weakened, which follows on the heels of two highly acclaimed predecessors. Their ever-shifting lineup has solidified in the last year or so, but the band will be bringing a string quartet to the launch night to reproduce the depth of the arrangements on the new album. Plus special guests Rob St John and Jill O’Sullivan & Jenny Reeve. Web http://songbytoad.com Twitter @SongbyToad
