The Magic Numbers To Headline City Showcase in Chinatown
Friday, 30 April 2010

City Showcase, the live music event which takes over the capital each year and takes place from 5 to 9 May, will this year launch in Chinatown bringing live music to the cultural capital where East literally meets West, in the heart of London’s West-End.
Critically acclaimed English indie-rock group The Magic Numbers will be headlining the event with an exclusive acoustic set, playing some tracks from the forthcoming new album “The Runaway” that comes out on June 7th.
Showing their support of City Showcase and the wealth of new talent supported by City Showcase, The Magic Numbers’ set will follow a showcase of some of the best up and coming acts including Bluesy songstress Lauren Pritchard, festival favourites Rebel Control, YouTube sensation Cherry Lee, and the romantic vocals of Vietnamese singer/songwriter Tuanne.
City Showcase has confirmed the first after-show party of its 2010 calendar. Whisky Mist, renowned as the favoured club of stars of stage, screen and even the Royals, will be the venue for 5 May, celebrating the end of City Showcase's Chinatown evening.
True to City Showcase's reputation of promoting great new music talent, there will be a live performance by Will Kevans. Described as Johnny Cash meets Pulp and Quite possibly the finest home grown singer-songwriter of recent times, Will brings his own Nashville-influenced brand of hooky songs to City Showcase and Whisky Mist.
Nanette Rigg of City Showcase said “The first of the City Showcase parties is always fantastic and this time we're delighted to link up with Whisky Mist. City Showcase wristband holders will also enjoy the Whisky Mist experience with no entry fee, if they arrive before midnight!”
The Magic Numbers said: ‘It is not easy to break in the music industry – it takes a great deal of hard work and dedication. We are pleased to be able to help shine a light on new artists that are coming through and performing in City Showcase’.
Whisky Mist is pleased to take part, saying ‘”We are very excited to be involved in City Showcase this year and are looking forward to hosting this special event for City Showcase wristband holders and Whisky Mist patrons alike.’
