New additions, a circus, and Nordic flavours!

Another couple of manic months at Canned Panther! We like, manic, we love busy, and we adore music!

We've seen new additions to our roster, gigs at Carling Academy, Blackburne Arms, Mathew Street Fringe Festival, among many! But what we have coming up is even more exciting!

Christina Malley

After wowing audiences at L1 Festival, Christina has a headline slot at 3345, Parr Street, Liverpool on 25/9/08.

She also famously appeared on BBC's Last Choir Standing. She performed a solo of 'Let It Be' with a little help from her friends, Sense Of Sound Choir. Click here for more info: http://www.bbc.co.uk/lastchoirstanding/choirs/sense/

Familiar Looking Strangers

Record hits on the FLS Myspace (we're pushing 600 plays a day). The band also feature on BBC Radio Merseyside, 2:30pm on Tuesday 17th 08. In fact local demand is so great that they have two upcoming headline gigs:

Magnet: 18th Sep 08

Yes, you read it right - we're having circus performers and the event is being filmed for a documentary for Icelandic TV!

Bumper: 23rd Oct 08

Don't forget to check out: Their song 'Ready For The Change' has been picked up by directors Patricia Trueba & Tomas J Salmeron, and is being used in the film 'Blanco en Botella...(if the cap fits...)'

Jack Roberts

Jack Roberts is now being accompanied by the utterly enthralling Mr Edwards on piano, and Joseph who 'operates the drums'. He will be supporting Neil Innes at The Cavern on 9th Octoner (Lennon's Birthday) and has an upcoming residency at Heebie Jeebies starting in October. WATCH OUT!!

Laney Murphy

Sensational Laney Murphy has been added to the Canned Panther roster! Vocally outstanding, the girl is getting snapped up for some great gigs, including supporting Ian McNabb at the end of the month. Her ska, soul vibes really get you in the mood!
