“A collaboration between Euros Childs and Norman Blake of Teenage Fanclub” says pretty much all you need to know about Jonny.A free EP before Christmas and now this month the pair’s debut thirteen track album and a tour. The record does favour fans of Euros Childs but as The Line Of Best Fit review put it: “the collaboration is a harmonious one, and one that highlights both musicians’ distinct styles to create an altogether different, yet timeless debut.... With their dream-like and often enigmatic lyrics, Jonny evoke slices of sunshine pop effortlessly and the pair’s simple, yet wonderfully melodic harmonies are a platform from which Jonny can accentuate their light-hearted lyrics.”
Jonny play The Deaf Institute tonight in Manchester before moving on to Birmingham, York, Middlesborough, Glasgow, Newcastle, Sunderland and then Europe. Support tonight only is from Laura J Martin who mixes eastern vibes and jazz rhythms into her acoustic folk-pop - definitely worth getting there early to catch her. Advance tickets are £7.50 or pay more on the door.
