Outlook From Friday: The Forbidden Fruit Festival

A superb band from Wellington, NZ performed last night in London at the Scala and lived up the reputation of MacGyver's employers' - mysterious, enigmatic and ahhh, I'm struggling with this metaphor - look they were really good. Their latest album 'Buffalo' is an exercise in pure blissed out guitar pop - whether channeling the Chills or Big Star, they create a intoxicating brew of shimmering guitars, bubbling synths and sweet, sweet vocal harmonies.
Here is a beautiful clip from the title track & you can see them play in Dublin on Saturday at the Forbidden Fruit festival. And make sure you hang around to catch them perform 'Hitchcock' live, that song is something else.
