Venue: The Railway map Address: 3 St Pauls Hill, Winchester, Hampshire, SO22 5AE Telephone: 01962 867795 Event: Lucy Kitchen + March - 7.30pm - In a musical world that seems ever more dictated by fad and fashion, driven by bluster and bombast, concerned with big statements and immediate responses, it is reassuring to know that there are still artists unaffected by such concerns. Lucy Kitchen is everything that the usual modern approach is not. Her songs are deft and delicate, built on clean-limbed and gentle lines and embellished with only the absolutely essential sonic details. Beats are minimal, textures subtly woven and the music feels nothing more than gossamer and smoke-like layers skilfully interlaced to maintain a musical weightlessness. |

Each song is a statement, a reminder that we are destroying wildlife and beyond, emptying oceans and forests of all their living creatures, thus leading ourselves to unavoidable extinction. Mind Imperium sings of the unheard scream of our oceans stripped of all life by the hand of men, of the bloodstained ashes of our forests whose life is burning away, the cub bereft of its mother’s warmth, of the father without a son. |
