The Invisible Lead Soup

[toneknob]

Hello!

The Invisible Lead Soup are gigging tonight at the Cross Kings, on York Way near King's Cross Station, London N1 - As usual we'll play some Soup favourites, plus one or two we've not done for a while. The Cross Kings is a couple of minutes walk from Kings Cross station, and unsurprisingly a load of buses go that way too. The full address is 126 York Way, London N1 0AX for those of you with satnav; also here's a map link: [url="http://preview.tinyurl.com/yk6samy"]http://preview.tinyurl.com/yk6samy[/url].

We're on about 8.30, but you can get there before to say hi and have a drink or two. There's a few other bands on, so it'll be busy: you can see Fighting Fiction (described on myspace as Indie/Rock/Punk), The World On Fire (Alternative/Rock) and Ryker Sear (Rock/Glam/Rock - they double rock!). Check out our facebook page (address below) for more info - you'll find the event's flyer there too. It won't get you in any cheaper but you'll have a handy reminder AND a special souvenir of the night. Here's some handy links for the night, top prize goes to whoever looks at all of them:

They said stuff about us!
From www.modculture.info: "Sometimes all a mod needs to keep happy is some mid-60s beat-pop. Step forward The Invisible Lead Soup. The London five-piece - Mark, Colin, Tony, Ted, and Tim - possess the harmonies of vintage US folk-rockers, mixed in with the pop-nous of Steve's Winwood and Marriott. The Zombies and Rubber Soul-era Beatles are obvious influences, whilst the driving rhythms and understated vocals on tracks such as 'Brand New Shirt' and 'What She Said' are also reminiscent of contemporary acts such like The Higher State and Beep Seals. The subtle but fluid Hammond organ playing is an added bonus to the psych-beat treats."

From www.pleasureunitbar.com: "Invisible Lead Soup are five discerning London gents with a love of fuzzy 60s garage nuggets and a bagful of sparkling beat pop gems. Imagine, if you will, Ray Davies and Steve Marriot hanging out with Television, in a perfumed garden, possibly sipping tea and looking particularly sharp. Regulars at London town's top swinging live nitespots will testify to the Soup's irresistible jangly guitar & organ fuelled onslaught and winning harmonies"

From www.soundsxp.com: "Invisible Lead Soup are purveyors of whimsical 60s pop, the sort that appeared on purple Pye labels, or on Decca, Deram or Immediate, bringing to mind the Zombies, the Kinks, the Eyes or the Bonzos. You could close your eyes and imagine that Jason King is stood next to you, nodding his approval of the band with a growled 'groovy' while he eyes up the chicks."
