Last night I made my way to The Russet in Hackney to go to the event Jam Sandwich (an evening of live musical acts).
Our friends George Cosby and Darls were going to be playing together (click here to listen to their music) so naturally we wanted to support. Also it was an opportunity to listen to some other great new bands!!!
The Russet was the perfect venue for such an occasion. A restaurant/ bar, slightly kooky/cool, very welcoming and a great space for performing musicians.

They had barrels of Cider, I thought this was Genius!!! |
 |
I loved their Tip jar....Made it worth leaving a tip.. |
We arrive just in time for George and Darls few.... So after grabbing a quick drink at the bar, which was sprouting a tree or wooden horns I'm not so sure, we settled down on the comfortable sofas surrounding the stage.
They gave a great performance and there music was amazing needless to say. 'Buttons' was my fav song, heart melting in a good way. I would love to have musical talent like these two.
They were followed by an American guy who was quite comical, he treated us to his saw playing....Yes he made music with a metal saw and the bow of a violin. I can't say it was may favorite sound every but a funny experience. I think I preferred his guitar playing.
I couldn't resist a little nose around in the break. I had to pap some of the funny/great random objects they had dotted all over the place.
 |
I think I could take this... Maybe not. |
 |
I wore my The Kooples boots as I thought they were quite appropriate/ urban music edgy. |
Next up was AHI a husband and wife musical match. They were insane and the combination of violin, guitar, and vocals was fantastic and really powerful. You can buy then on itunes so have a listen.
 |
They were actually serving free Jam Sandwich's |
A few other acts came and went.....Plenty Wild was the last of the night and oh what a way to end a great evening listen to them here or follow them on facebook and twitter, it's seriously worth your time. Jonty, Lo, and Tim created their band last year and i'm so glad they did, these guys have some serious talent.
 |
I think everyone else felt the same way... |
Time for home I was tempted to grab one of their amazing freshly ground coffees for my trip back....But instead I left quietly hee.
