Video: Russell Brand and Rubber Bandits response to Parklife jibes

When some sections of the press mocked Russell Brand for being a verbose, working class Essex boy by saying that everything he said should be followed by “PARKLIFE” it was pretty fun. Brand’s response, to team up with the Rubber Bandits and turn the joke back on the tellers is even better.

Songs from below: Nouria Bah, Nia Robbie Desroches and Daisy Howard

Songs from Below Is back and soon. And we do have fantastic songcrafters and acoustic music makers.

Really massively pleased to finally have Nia coming her unique, resonator backed America style. Listen to her here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DL3PaxavTD8. It’s taken many months to get her at Songs from Below and it will totally be worth it.

Also really happy to be welcoming Nouria back. Definitely one of the most appreciated acts at songs from below (even is her music does sometimes contain villainous Jazzish tendencies). She also played IWD unplugged last year and she was massively loved.

And Robbie DesRoches who’s crazy band Big Boys Camp, shocked and awed the crowds at proud Camden last week will be bringing his own show to Songs from Below.

A good night it will be. Entry just £4 and all profits go to the musicians.
