De Rosa versus Found @ Nice 'n' Sleazy, 15 Nov

Article by Euan Ferguson | 27 Oct 2008

De Rosa versus Found, Chemikal Underground versus the Fence Collective, Glasgow versus Edinburgh, poignant and delicate melodic folk-pop versus eclectic experimental esoterica...despite the confrontational threats of this gig, it promises to be a wholeheartedly friendly affair: more a meeting of minds than violent face-off. There’s already a bit of crossover between De Rosa and Found – both deal in heartfelt tales of urban heartbreak, sung with an unashamedly local accent and played with one ear on Scotland's rich folk history. As two of the country's most interesting bands of recent times, sharing the bill at this Nice n’ Sleazy double header should win them new fans from both sides.
