Bearded Theory - Barsteward Sons Of Val Doonican. Tank tops and sixties sound with a distinct Northern edge to the lyrics. Lots of fun.
Bluedot - Groove Armada. Hard to believe it's their farewell tour after 25 years. Fabulous dance electronica, and their projected graphics into the Lovell Telescope were eye-boggling.
Green Man - Carwyn Ellis & Rio 18 with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales. Bear with me on this because I know it sounds weird. Latin sound with a full orchestra, and (mostly) fun lyrics sung in Welsh. "Olá" is on YouTube somewhere and gives a good flavour of the experience.
Honourable mentions to Public Service Broadcasting who were at GM and BD as last minute stand-ins for groups that pulled out, Dub Beatles (GM), Jess Philips (GM, yes her), Metronomy (GM & BD) and Mogwai (BD) who I've wanted to see for years and who blew my ears off.
Two more gigs left this year. ☹️
