Headliner: The Mouse Outfit
Venue: Bodega Social Club
Date: 12 June 2014
Support: Ashmore
The Mouse Outfit, UK Hip Hop is often both misunderstood and much maligned in favour of overproduced commercial American music of rubbish like Tinie Tempah or Professor Green. But some artists with lots of talent do come from these shores. The Mouse Outfit are a multi instrumental live band.
When I first arrived there was nobody in the venue and that worst feeling as a gig goer strikes you.... please don't let me be the only ones here.
When Ashmore started that was almost the case. I have seen him before and he definitely has some talent, by the end of his set the audience had grown and the set was going down well.
By the time The Mouse Outfit came on the crowd has swelled, they packed out the stage and with Dr Syntax rapping and they were ace, they really got the crowd going and put on an amazing show.
I can see them going down really well at the festivals.
As a closing thought people really should give homegrown music a go instead of just going for the easy option the major label backed, over hyped, media driven stuff they might just enjoy what they find
