The Telescopes @ Captain's Rest, 11 Apr

Article by Victoria Davie | 19 Mar 2009

Space rockers The Telescopes may have formed over twenty years ago but they are still recording and more importantly still gigging, albeit with a slim-lined version of their original 1987 line up. Stephen Lawrie comes to Glasgow with a solo acoustic set which promises to bring a different dimension to their My Bloody Valentine-esque noise rock. The acoustic set is to be followed by a short electric set with support band St Deluxe on hand to bring Lawrie’s experimental electronic soundscapes to the stage. With last year’s release, Infinite Suns, described as “the sound of earthquakes dreaming” expect something rather different.
