SUMMARY:The Monochrome Set
LOCATION:Preston The Continental
DESCRIPTION:plus 14 Iced Bears & DJ Dave Chambers - THE MONOCHROME SETA re
 turn to one of their favourite venues\, The Continental\, for THE MONOCHRO
 ME SET!The band features original Monochrome Set members Bid (guitar/vocal
 s) and Andy Warren (bass) with Athen Ayren on keyboards and Dave Morgan on
  drums.The Monochrome Set formed in 1978\, and were heavily influential in
  the post-punk scene that evolved after the initial scorched earth of punk
 . The band's early releases were on the legendary Rough Trade Label before
  signing with Virgin offshoot Din Disc. They also released several albums 
 on the Cherry Red label\, making a notable appearance on that labels' well
  known "Pillows and Prayers" compilation.Though The Monochrome Set split i
 n 1985 the next decade saw several reunions for both live gigs and further
  studio recordings. After a hiatus of over a decade the band reformed full
  time in 2010 and have since toured all over the UK\, Europe\, Japan and t
 he USA\, whilst also releasing eight new\, critically acclaimed\, studio a
 lbums. Now in their 48th year\, they are beginning a new series of gigs pr
 omoting their new album and playing songs from throughout that time.14 ICE
 D BEARS 14 ICED BEARS started out being dismissed by a jaded music press a
 s a generic twee outfit but over time developed into an undeniably ground-
 breaking indie band whose psychedelic excursions set the template for the 
 early 90s shoegaze sound\, which is enjoying a huge renaissance today. For
 med in Brighton in 1985\, by Robert Sekula and Nick Emery the band feature
 d a shifting line-up of musicians across their initial seven-year run\, ce
 ntred on songwriter and vocalist Rob and guitarist/songwriter Kevin Canham
 . Their jangly indie pop was characterised by a fuzzy protopunk-influenced
  guitar sound\, and saw them receive modest critical acclaim in Britain's 
 music press and approval from John Peel who requested a couple of sessions
  from the band. The group released a handful of singles for a variety of l
 abels\, including "Come Get Me" for the legendary Sarah Records\, and two 
 full-length albums: the eponymous 14 Iced Bears (1988)\, and Wonder (1991)
 .After their LPs were reissued by the boutique Optic Nerve label\, 14 Iced
  Bears reformed in 2010 and toured the US east coast\, the US west coast i
 n 2011\, as well as some concerts in London and Indietracks festival befor
 e fading into the background again\, although front-man Rob Sekula continu
 ed to play solo and put out occasional singles. But over the last couple o
 f years there has been a resurgence of activity from the Bears\, and they 
 have played a number of Pop Fests in the UK and Europe finding new fans wh
 o recognise their status as indie-pop greats. PLUS DJ DAVE CHAMBERS\n\nBol
