Cowtown

Cowtown sobe ao palco a 17 de outubro de 2026, Kirkgate Community Centre, em Bradford.

COWTOWN are coming to KCC Shipley on Saturday 17th October and we've invited them to curate a lineup of all the fun stuff... joining them will be double drums / vocals duo RATTLE, Wrong Speed punk rockers BIG BREAK, Leeds noise duo NO DISC and the debut gig from a new band Cowtown's Nash is doing, DOMES. Cowtown deals in tight, lean, joyous post-punk for our times. Music with an emphasis on positive expression and confronting collective anxieties, cemented with live shows that focused on only what they enjoy and discarding the rest. Serrated guitar hooks cut through the air with razor-sharp precision; glottal vocals ricochet off a marauding low-end that’s part Vice City soundtrack, part Devo-gone-disco; no second feels wasted, no element superfluous. The ebullient trio of David Michael Shields (drums), Hilary Knott (keybass/vocals) and Jonathan Nash (guitar/vocals) remain econo, dynamic and over-stimulated after over 20+ years in the field. They’ve played with practically everyone; from Thee Oh Sees, Jon Spencer, Lightning Bolt, Le Savy Fav, Quasi, Death Sentence Panda, Chad VanGaalen, Deerhoof and Ponytail, to more unexpected supports for the likes of Afrikan Boy, Maximo Park, Future Islands and Wolf Alice. They’ve lost track of how many Marc Riley sessions they’ve performed and easily hold the record for the most played shows at the legendary local hotspot The Brudenell Social Club.
