Blood Red Shoes

Blood Red Shoes play Village Underground on Thursday 29 October, their only London date that week. It's just the two of them on stage: Laura-Mary Carter on guitar and vocals, and Steven Ansell on drums and vocals. They've been making records and touring as a pair for more than two decades, and they're still working as a duo.

They're an alternative act from Brighton and Hove, and their sound pulls from a fair few places. It sits across alternative, art rock, garage rock, indie, rock and industrial rock, so it's hard to pin them to one particular corner of the map. That range comes from the two of them sharing the singing duties, with Carter on guitar and Ansell on drums, both taking turns on the vocals. They've spent over twenty years recording and playing live as a pair, and that's exactly how they'll be when they take the stage.

If you're not familiar with them, they're a Brighton and Hove duo, and they've been at it for more than twenty years. Carter handles guitar and vocals, Ansell takes the drums and vocals, and they've toured the world as a pair throughout that time. Their sound covers alternative, art rock, garage rock, indie, rock and industrial rock, so it's a broad enough reach to pull in a few different kinds of listener.

It's a Thursday night, and the show starts at 7:30 PM. Village Underground is at 55 Holywell Ln, London.
