Review of Sandells 'Salford City Radio session' 23/02/2010 by Bob Osborne
The Sandells - In Session on Reformation
It's not often you get the chance to listen to a band one on one, but I suppose one of the added values of being a DJ is you do get the opportunity to watch musicians at their craft close up as it were.
When Tim Lyons suggested to me that The Sandells would like to do an electric set for the Reformation show my initial reaction was - we can't do that. The studios at Salford City Radio are somewhat limited size wise, and the accepted norm is that we can do Acoustic with maybe one electric instrument. But Tim is a persistent kind of chap and after several e-mails and a visit to the station we decided to go for it.
I'm glad we did.
With Dave Thom from Calvin Party sitting in with the band on this occasion we got the chance to hear The Sandells plus keyboards - which was a bonus and perhaps suggests that a fourth instrument might be a good future direction for the band.
