BEDSIT POETS celebrate the holiday season at THE MERCURY LOUNGE on Monday
December 12th, 9:30pm. when they play their last show of 2005.
The Bedsit Poets, comprised of Amanda Thorpe, Edward Rogers, and Mac Randall,
will be joined by Nancy Polstein on percussion, and Matt Keating on bass.
Their acid folk and shimmery pop music is stamped by the beautiful and warm
harmonies of Edward and Amanda. Imagine Fairport Convention crossed with Belle
and Sebastian, with a touch of Serge and Jane. Haunting, tuneful, and
lyrically off-kilter... Their debut CD, The Summer That Changed,
just released on
Bongo Beat Records, has been receiving rave reviews.
"The reason you ought to hear them is the vocal interplay between front-types
Amanda Thorpe and Edward Rogers." Time Out New York
"The Bedsit Poets..deliver tender originals that have an early-sixties
innocence."
The New Yorker
Also, to all you Sirius Satellite Radio listeners, tune in on Sunday,
December 11th when Bedsit Poets join hosts, Pete & Maura Kennedy on their show,
