TRAGIC news that Shiv Lizzy, one of the 45 shortlisted acts in the Camden Crawl Emerging Talent Awards (ETA) has been killed in a road accident. I’ve heard Crawl organisers want to keep her music in the competition anyway and let it be judged on its merit. From what I’m hearing, she was a strong contender.
• Thanks to the anonymous reader who set me straight on the qualities of Crawl headliners LostProphets and We Are Scientists. Without your stern words I may have had to think for myself.
• Great news for Irish band The Jude, who played The Dublin Castle’s St Patrick’s Day celebrations last week. They’ve been chosen to play industry-acclaimed City Showcase 2010 and have made it to the Camden Crawl’s ETAs shortlist – vote for them at www.emergingtalentawards.com/vote/band/the-jude
• Acclaimed author of The Looked After Kid, Paolo Hewitt, is DJing at a special charity night at the Lexington (March 30). Leddra Chapman, who’s still at uni, songwriter Georgia Strand and Liverpool band The Branco Heist are all on the bill. It’s in aid of the Willow Foundation, which organises special days for seriously ill people.
