Candy @ Brighton Up Bar, 16th Jun

“Candy is aka Calum Newton off of Lunatics On Pogosticks, and this new project is him flying solo – and he’s working without a net, guitars and squidgy synths, channeling both PiL-era Lydon and the best bits of Australian jangle. It’s smooth and full of groove, but it’s got pupils so wide you just know it’s going for you throat later. Really like this.”
