Pilosa – Live in Sheffield 25th June 2016
Pilosa are a three piece electro outfit from Sheffield who wear their LCD Soundsystem influences quite proudly on their sleeves. When they are wearing things with sleeves that is and not just t-shirts. Which they are here. Obviously.
We’re not really normally quite into the more funky hip hop inspired sound that Pilosa do but yet there is something awfully infectious and appealing about it in this instance. There’s a clear glee and enthusiasm bursting from them about what they’re doing and frankly bags of musicianship and professionalism. Such qualities are hard to resist, alongside some actually really rather catchy tunes.
Here’s a couple of videos we took of them from last saturday night so why not have a look for yourself to see the enjoyment that can be had.
You can find more Pilosa tunes on soundcloud and facebook and twitter:

Tokyo Witch Hunt at Live in Barnsley
It’s long been the case that Tokyo Witch Hunt have been one of our favourite artists. There’s just something incredible and masterful about the way maestro Izzie Kirk puts together a song that really gets into our bone marrow. Songs that are frequently as danceable as they are deep, as singalong as they are soulful. She’s also got great style in the live performance too as you’ll see here when Tokyo Witch Hunt headlined the K Box Stage at the Live in Barnsley Festival.
On this special occasion Ash, her usual bass player, was unable to make it so Faye of Berlyn Trilogy kindly stepped in on bass guitar duties to great effect.
Here she is joined by Faye of Berlyn Trilogy
