Live gig by indie rock quartet Skylights, blending Britpop and post-punk, at Sneaky Pete's in Edinburgh.
Skylights are playing Sneaky Pete's on Friday 6 November, starting at 7.00pm. They're an indie rock quartet from the North, and this is a headline show with them as the sole bill for the night.
If you're wondering where they sit, they describe their sound as infusing Britpop and post-punk influences from the likes of Oasis, Courteeners and The Verve. It's a clear enough map: the melodic, singalong side of the 90s mixed with the sharper, guitar-led edges of the post-punk that followed. If those names ring a bell, you've got a good idea of the territory they're working in.
They've built a palpable buzz following their debut, What You Are, so this is a good chance to hear them live if you've only had the record on repeat. The set will be built around that material, and with them as the only act on the bill, the whole evening is theirs to fill.
