The Voluntary Butler Scheme

While I’m here and getting excited about tomorrows gig, I also have to mention that the drummer from The School lives locally too in Stourbridge and performs solo indiepop gigs under the name of The Voluntary Butler Scheme.

I saw him play live a few months ago at Bohemian Jukebox and it was wonderful. Using one of those loop things which records a few bars and then plays them back ad infinitum, he built up little ramshackle drum and jingle rhythms and then played gorgeous pop tunes over the top with a guitar.

Sadly, I think gigs are a rare event – but songs seem to be changed and added to the myspace site frequently so it’s one to check every so often.
