A gig held at The Thunderbolt on Tuesday 16th July. The event starts at 20:00.
Tokyo based four-piece Taffy are something of a unique entity in being possibly the only Japanese band this past ten years to stir up any kind of interest in western territories.
Pitching themselves somewhere between the hard candy of The Primitives, wistful experimentalism perfected by the Boo Radleys and elegant new wave of Echobelly and Elastica, Taffy's sophisticated blend of sweet and sour guitar orientated pop has attracted a spate of attention, particularly from the UK.
Signed to London's Club AC30, their debut LP Caramel Sunset is about to hit the shops in a matter of weeks, preceded by limited edition lead single'So Long' on Record Store Day. ' Everyone's a zinger, baby, that's no lie. And they rattle through them like the music's about to go out of fashion, which is funny because that's never going to happen. ' THE GAURDIAN (2013)
