The Pickups
"...you have to cringe when you realize they shouldn’t have bothered...you get the feeling that if they’d spent half the time they have listening to music actually learning how to write songs and play in time they might have made it a little farther. Shame really." - Jim Bevington, Is This Music? fanzine, Linlithgow, Scotland, July 2010
The Blue Moon
Christchurch band ‘The Blue Moon’ formed in mid 2010 with songwriter Anthony Pascoe (vocals, guitar) being joined by David Clark (bass, guitar) and Mike Summerfield (drums). Influenced by Roy Orbison, Neil Young and Radiohead amongst others – a ‘Dream Pop’, ‘Slowcore’, ‘Alt Country’ sound was created likened to Galaxy 500. After playing several shows in Christchurch they recorded their first EP ‘Slide Down’ in the summer of ’10-’11. Jared Kelly (The Pickups) has recently joined the band on bass.
