After a couple of years mooching about the house not
doing much, everyone’s favourite grin and grunge crackpots, the Lovely Eggs,
are back with a new single, album and tour.
“Magic Onion” is the super 45 taster, accompanied in the best
Lovely Eggs tradition by a suitably colourful and wonky video which you can see
above. The tour began on Friday and ends on 9th May, with an
official launch party for the album, This
Is Our Nowhere, taking place at the unlikely venue of London’s Jazz Café on
Thursday 7th May.
All that is exciting enough but even more so personally
as Holly and David Egg have very kindly asked me to spin the platters at the
launch party. Any tourists wandering in to the Jazz Café expecting an evening
of New Orleans Dixieland or 70s style jazz fusion are going to be, well, confused I
guess with songs about magic onions, green beans, beef bourguignon and sausage rolls thumbs. Bring it on. Just don’t expect an encore…
For all your Eggy goodness, check out their site at The Lovely Eggs.
The Lovely Eggs play the Jazz Cafe, Camden on Thursday 7th May 2015 with support from Doglegs. Tickets here.
