Sounds Like: ’’Next on are the Dirty Violets. They have come prepared with three songs of jaunty indie pop. Immediately impressive, this is a band that plays well together. Really well. "Look on Your Face" is one of those songs of summer tunes with Craig McInnes sounding remarkably poised and confident. Bluesbunny also has to note that Chris McMenamin’s guitar playing exudes subtlety and smoothness. You really have to pay attention to realise just how good he is. With the variety shown in their song writing and their super tight performance, commercial success cannot be far away.’’
’’This was some sort of competition but Bluesbunny did not stick around for the verdict as, unfortunately, bogging Guinness is not limited to certain bars in Glasgow’s Sauchiehall Street. For our money, and based solely on tonight’s performance, The Dirty Violets really delivered the goods. Quite liked Stutter Bunny as well though’’
