Our very Own CharlieвЂ™s angels bring yOu...
The hOT lisT
Ashleigh Jayne- Stylist / Vivienne Edge- Photographer
is huge, so if youвЂ™re feeling blue
donвЂ™t! You canвЂ™t possibly go
wrong with this one, from cobolt,
electric to aquamarine, there
are plenty of shades for you to
choose from. There you have it,
a teeny insight to whatвЂ™s hot this
season. Now the ballвЂ™s in your
court ladies, so make me proud!
Two words, вЂ�The AlchemistвЂ™.
Having opened only 3 weeks
ago this place is already making
waves.
This is without a doubt one of
the more imaginative creations
to hit the city, offering something
unlike many of its neighbours
in the immediate vicinity. The
sophisticated, yet trendy layout,
is complemented by the shear
attention that has gone into the
menu, from laboratory-styled
beakers, vials, even kettles and
soda syphons, this is something
Leeds has never seen before!
Situated on the first floor of the
new trinity shopping complex,
itвЂ™s the perfect place to go for
a chilled lunch and a cheeky
cocktail then by night it will turn
in to your new guilty pleasure.
See you thereвЂ¦
Its time to prep that
wardrobe for this summer.
Spring/Summer 2013 is all about
letting your clothes do the
talking - foreign postage stamps
at Mary Katrantzou, Sicilian
folklore at Dolce & Gabbana and
colourful exaggerated leopard
print at Kenzo. Go bold, go
bright, go forth or go home!
DonвЂ™t be scared offвЂ¦ we do have
other alternatives. Monochrome
- itвЂ™s this seasonвЂ™s it word. This
minimalist trend was all over the
runways including Gucci, Marc
Jacobs and Roland Mouret. This
is perfect for those of you who
arenвЂ™t feeling too daring yet want
to make a statement, add a pop
of colour with your shoe choice
and youвЂ™re on to a winner! Aqua

What is the
biggest trend today?
IвЂ™ll save you some time by
answering this one for you, вЂ�AntiagingвЂ™. This stands as the leading
trend in the world to date. This
billion dollar industry has just
given birth to my new little baby
вЂ�The Galvanyic facialвЂ™; this is the
future and it fits right in the palm
of your hand. The machine this
product is based on is
every celebrities best
friend, usually costing
around ВЈ20,000 to
purchase, you also
have to be specially
trained to use one.
Sounds like a lot of
effort just to keep
that baby
fresh face
doesnвЂ™t
it! Here is
where we
come inвЂ¦ Nuskin have made
life a lot easier for us and have
shrunk this down to a handheld
version and yep you got it, we
can use it ourselves at home
and it takes only 10 minutes to
get instant results. No more fine
lines, no more having to book
appointments, itвЂ™s all done in
the comfort of your own home
and at an affordable price.
This nifty little device is rapidly
becoming known as the none
surgical facelift and trust when I
say that it works. Contact Naomi
Ford on 0791 4181891 for free
demonstrations on this amazing
product and see www.nuskin.

Programme
2013 has been a busy year
for Northern Ballet, Isaac
Lee-Baker, sponsored by City
Dweller, is currently touring as
part of The Great Gatsby (we
do hope you enjoyed the Leeds
premiГЁre in March!).
Since his City Dweller exclusive,
Isaac and the Company have
toured David NixonвЂ™s The Great
Gatsby extensively to venues
including Sheffield, Edinburgh,
Belfast and Norwich. The tour
ends at SadlerвЂ™s Wells where
they perform from 14-18 May.
What now? Northern Ballet
is proud to present Mixed
Programme; a programme of
new work by internationally
celebrated artists realised by
Northern BalletвЂ™s talented and
versatile dancers.
This year, Europe meets America
as Dance takes centre stage
with Northern BalletвЂ™s Mixed
Programme, which includes 3
short ballets:
вЂў Concertante
вЂў Angels in Architecture
вЂў Luminous Junc.ture
The company is delighted to
be working with award winning
Deutch choreographer Hans
Van ManenвЂ™s, his short classical
ballet, Concertante opens the
Mixed Programme.
Following that, the incredibly
moving Angels in Architecture,
by American choreographer
Mark Godden; this ballet is set
to Aaron CoplandвЂ™s вЂ�Appalachian
SpringвЂ™ and explores the lives of
the American Shaker people.
In 2011, Kenneth Tindall,
Northern Ballet Premiere
Dancer, created his debut
piece Project#1 for the 2011
Mixed Programme, winning
the Bundesjungendballett
Production Prize at the 26th
Choreography Competition in
Hanover. Luminous Junc.ture,
his newest creation, is the third

ThereвЂ™s been a lot of people flogging dead horses recently, and the
greedy movie execs behind the Scary Movie franchise are no exception.
With a cast that boasts a whoвЂ™s who of box office has-beens (and plenty
more that never were or ever will be), you know youвЂ™re in for a very
cheap ride that should have been shut down a long, long time ago, a
bit like the Never-Never Land Ranch. Fans can expect a series of rather
obvious and poorly executed pop shots at any film, celeb or TV show
that has been remotely popular in the last five years. Films that havenвЂ™t
even been made yet are not even safe from their desperate talons, as
Fifty Shades takes a few knocks. Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan both
make an appearance. Say no more.
BritainвЂ™S Got talent
DonвЂ™t get me wrong, I love a dancing dog or a singing chimp as much
as the next person, but this show seems way past its sell by date to me.
I even quite like Simon Cowell, but how cruel to have people judged
by the likes of Amanda Holden? A woman famous for being incredibly
patronising, advertising yoghurt and rinsing Les Dennis. Switch over
to The Voice instead. Or, you could just avoid both and go out and get
drunk.

I was lucky enough to attend this yearвЂ™s prestigious Oliver Awards and
proud to see my local, Yum Yum, scoop top prize for best lunch. Where
else can you go in Leeds for a decent feed and walk away with change
from a fiver? Beating off competition from some of Leeds best loved
restaurants, it really was a triumph. Nobody does a sweet chilli chicken
and pancetta sandwich quite like them and the burritos and Sunday
dinners are to die for. As summer approaches, IвЂ™m looking forward to
enjoying a tipple or two on their terrace.
the BotaniSt
The newest bar in Leeds is a welcome breath of fresh air, with a decent
outdoor seating area with open kitchen and a warm, homely, pub like
interior. The dining area looks as though Damien Hirst got hold of
your grandadвЂ™s garden shed (minus the dead animals thankfully) and
the drink menu would have David Bellamy frothing at the mouth with
excitement, using a variety of herbs and other weird and wonderful
things you wouldnвЂ™t expect to find in your cocktail. The hanging steak
kebab with garlic sauce is a must try from their food menu.
the Pour houSe
Tucked away, across the water from The Hop, The Pour House is slowly
but surely building up a reputation as a great little watering hole and
eatery too. It may be a pub that serves food rather than a proper
restaurant, but the U.S inspired menu has some quality options which are
far better than some of its more prolific rivals. Try the insanity chicken
wings or their homemade burgers, which they will happily stuff with
your filling of choice.

ItвЂ™s take it or leave it when it comes to new shopping centres with
me, but many of the bars and restaurants in Trinity have really added
something a bit different to the city. Situated on the 5th and 6th floors,
each with their own sizeable terraces, London based company D&D are
really onto a winner with these two. Crafthouse specialise in steak, whilst
upstairs, Angelica offers cocktails and seafood. Perfect for a special
occasion or hot date, but only if theyвЂ™re worth it I might add. For anyone
else, donвЂ™t forget Trinity also has a Nandos and a Burger King.

Black dresses traditionally
connote mourning and death
for many people, but thereвЂ™s a
difference between showing up
to your best friendвЂ™s nuptials
in funeral garb and wearing a
sleek, little black number to an
evening wedding. As long as
the dress feels fun and light,
regardless of how dark it is,
you should be fine.
Sequins usually work, as do
black cocktail dresses for
formal ceremonies. However,
if thereвЂ™s even the slightest
chance it could fit into a
procession for the deceased,
put it back on the rack and slip
into something more colourful.
many of my clients have told
me about, and comes from
having seen it happen before.
So, why not see about having
something made? If you can
design it yourself and have it
made to measure you know
itвЂ™s going to be unique so
eliminates the fearвЂ¦
This can be said of headwear
too, but fortunately I share
my studio with Milliner Beth
Hirst of Couture Hats, so
realistically you could have
your entire outfit sorted in one
appointment eliminating any
fear completely.
For obvious reasons, itвЂ™s never
a good idea to wear anything
that could be mistaken for a
wedding dress. But, just like the
tradition against wearing black,
I think this rule can be broken
-- if you go about it the right
way. A simple, off-white dress
or skirt should be fine, and if
you want to be absolutely sure
youвЂ™re not stepping on any
perfectly manicured toes, have
a word with the bride. Make
sure your white outfit of choice
is dramatically different, so
if sheвЂ™s wearing a full-skirted
gown, opt for something
simpler.
ThereвЂ™s also nothing worse
than turning up at a wedding
in the same outfit as another
guest! This is a problem that so

A WEEKEND ESCAPE TO LEEDS
City DwellerвЂ™s travel expert Yasmin Macis, checks out Bewleys Hotels unbelievable Fab Friday offer.
I love the buzz of Leeds city
centre, whether itвЂ™s blowing my
hard-earned cash in its cool stores
during the day or hitting the
myriad of bars and restaurants at
night!
It offers something for everyone
and I was really looking forward
to spending a whole weekend
there. Coming from a family of
hotel owners and running my
own business as a personal travel
advisor, I have tourism running
through my veins.
Over the years IвЂ™ve been fortunate
enough to visit hotels all over
the world, so grabbed a recent
opportunity to stay at the Leeds
outpost of the BewleyвЂ™s chain. It
was a new experience for me and
their Fab Friday offer of rooms
starting at ВЈ40, left me with more
to spend on retail therapy.
producing an inevitable wall-ofsound from packs of party animals
вЂ“ thankfully, BewleyвЂ™s is tucked
away in a quiet backwater and
its rooms are soundproofed, so if
youвЂ™re on business and prepping
for that big presentation, you
should still enjoy a decent nightвЂ™s
kip.
The first thing I noticed, as I trotted
across the lobby to reception,
was a welcome sense of space
and calm. I was greeted by a
refreshingly friendly receptionist 10 out of 10 for service!
After settling in my room with a
nice cup of tea - too early for the
inviting hotel bar! - I decided to
take a walk into Leeds.
Like any seasoned traveler, I
wondered if my room would be
of a similar high standard вЂ“ no
disappointment there.
Despite staying in an oasis of calm,
I found myself just a few minutes
stroll from the train station and city
attractions.
Finally, an unexpected highlight
was dinner at the hotelвЂ™s Brasserie,
which was a real treat. The
restaurant is arranged around a
lovely central fireplace, making it
cosy and inviting.
The food was pure Masterchef and
I read on the website that they
source ingredients locally, with
meat reared in Yorkshire wherever
possible. The meal capped an
excellent stopover.
Thanks BewleyвЂ™s вЂ“ IвЂ™ll be back!
For a 3-star hotel, BewleyвЂ™s
certainly punches above its weight,
my bedroom bright and spacious,
bed wonderfully comfy, bathroom
sparklingly immaculate -always
essential for a lady! - and the whole
feel upmarket and sophisticated.

GIRLS JUST WANNA
C E L E B R A T I N G
HAVE FUN!
You would probably think two glammed up 24 year old girls with the expectations of a
casino from some Hollywood blockbuster, wouldnвЂ™t quite find their feet in a place like
Napoleons. Well, how wrong you would be.
Upon arrival, the friendly manager
Steve greeted us and then
escorted us over to the bar area,
where we had a large choice
of cocktails and other alcohol
beverages.
Whilst we were sipping our
refreshing MojitoвЂ™s, our larger than
life waiter Paul brought us the
food menus to deliberate.
We were both surprised with
restaurant, which over-looks the
casino. Our table was beautifully
set out in the corner and even
though youвЂ™d think it might be
noisy, it had a romantic, yet
energetic atmosphere. For an
early Wednesday evening we were
rather surprised how full it was!
We then came to the part of the
evening that I had been most
looking forward to, the casino!
Unfortunately, there werenвЂ™t any
organised poker tournaments that
night. However, we did settle into
a fun game of blackjack and then
Roulette!
Paul our waiter, was extremely

Bar and
reSTauranT
вЂњOne cannot think well, love well, sleep
well, if one has not dined wellвЂќ
Virginia Woolf
San Lucus Tapas Bar, situated
at 40 Great George Street, has
opened with a much cooler and
low key launch than the previous
restaurant, Johnny Fontanes. City
Dweller, Jordan Fletcher went to
check it out.
Nearby to the popular bars &
cafГ©s on Great George Street
and Millennium Square, the
restaurant has been transformed
from what looked like a warped
scene from Happy Days, into
something far more inviting.
I arrived early one Saturday
evening, and couldnвЂ™t help
but be impressed by the
drastic change the place had
undergone.
With a high ceiling, exposed
brick work, mismatched furniture
and an open kitchen, it really
does have a very Mediterranean
vibe whilst remaining very
modern at the same time.
We were greeted by a friendly
bar man, who swiftly pulled us
a pre-meal pint, whilst our table
was prepared.
It was a pleasant evening and
with the sun shining through
the full length window which
runs all the way round the

The winner though, had to
be the pork skewers with
chimichurri (ВЈ5). The sauce was
hot enough, without burning
your mouth and ruining the
flavours of other dishes on the
table and the pork was so soft
and flavoursome.
restaurant, you could be forgiven
for thinking you were actually in
Spain itself - if youвЂ™d had one too
many sangrias of course.
Look a little closer at some of
the dГ©cor, you will see some
classic advertising signs from
the 40s and 50s, it seems to
work visually.
We were handed menus by our
friendly waitress, who brought
over bread, olives and oil, while
we waited for our Bottle of
Rioja and decided our tapas
selection.
The choice is not huge by any
means but carefully selected,
making it quite hard to choose.
The specials board also had
some tempting options as well,
as did the wine list where prices
are a nice surprise.
After much debate (and a little
help from our waitress, Maria),
we finally chose six dishes,
Unlike their cousins around
the world, tapas are more
than just finger foods and
appetizers. TapasвЂ™ is not a
particular type of food, but
rather a different way of
eating out.
The stand out dish was a tough
call, as the goats cheese with
figs (ВЈ4.50) was something
I wouldnвЂ™t normally go for
but it ended up being a real
showstopper.
The prices are very reasonable and the service
was the best IвЂ™ve received anywhere in a long
time, all good reasons to come back.
which we were both happy with.
First up, was the classic patatas
bravas (ВЈ4.20), which are triple
cooked and you could tell. They
had that lovely crisp, wrinkled
skin which you donвЂ™t tend to get
unless youвЂ™re on holiday in the
Canaries.
The sea bass special (ВЈ6) arrived
in a generous portion and again
had lovely crisp skin but perhaps
could have done with some kind
of sauce to give it a little kick.
The chorizo in cider (ВЈ5) was
divine, and had the right balance
of mild spiciness mixed with
sweet.
It was also great for dipping
warm bread into. The slow
cooked lamb with rosemary,
thyme, cumin and red wine
(ВЈ6) was accompanied with
creamed potatoes felt more like
a traditional Sunday dinner, but
was incredible all the same.
www.city-dweller.co.uk
Initially, we declined dessert but
our waitress recommended their
cheesecake and homemade icecream.
IвЂ™m not a pudding man but both
were excellent, although I could
barely move afterwards.
There are now a large selection
of tapas restaurants in Leeds
and I would highly recommend
you avoid the chains (not
mentioning any names of
course) and hit San Lucus for
the real deal.
Close to the Nuffield Leeds
Hospital & The Leeds General
Infirmary, and chilled enough for
a quick drink, its a great place to
relax whether youвЂ™re a doctor or
a student.
www.city-dweller.co.uk
вЂњTapasвЂ™ is best defined as
the tradition of enjoying
small portions of different
appetizers and finger foodsвЂќ.
The prices are very reasonable
and the service was the best
IвЂ™ve received anywhere in a long
time. All good reasons to come
back.
It looks like this lovely building
has finally been given the
respect it deserves and IвЂ™m
pretty sure the Fonz would
approve and return despite the
lack of burgers and shakes on
the menu.

A UNIqUE EXPERIENCE
standing proud on the top level
of Trinity leeds is Everyman
cinema, a unique viewing
experience with quality food and
drinks thrown in.
Why not start your night in the
Everyman Pizzeria?
With the simple aim to serve
good food by friendly staff in a
stylish yet relaxed environment.
The menu offers what youвЂ™d
imagine from any Pizza joint,
however it has a twist on
toppings and authentic wood
fired bases, (If Pizzas not your
thing, thereвЂ™s always a pasta or
grill option).
What really stands out on this
menu is low prices, with the
meats being locally sourced
youвЂ™d expect to pay more than
7 or 8 quid a dish. The large bar
area of Everyman caters for all, it
has group seating areas for larger
parties, cute little cubbyholes for
the more intimate encounter, and
the spacious terrace for those
warm summer nights (fingers
crossed!).
Part of the uniqueness about this
cinema is that you can sit back
and watch your film with a chilled
drink in hand, a white wine, a pint
of lager or a fizzy pop.
Each state of the art auditorium
is complete with luxury sofa
seating, individual foot rests,
tables and wine coolers.

snacks to munch away at during

to such extravagance youвЂ™ll be
surprised at the very reasonable
bar and snack prices, a far
cry from the expensive mass
produced refreshments often
found at the local multi-plex.
Everyman also has its own
private screen and bar which can
be rented for parties, corporate

INDEPENDENT JEWELLER CHAMPIONS
WORKING WITH LOCAL BUSINESSES
phillip stoner the Jeweller opened the doors
of its newest boutique store in Trinity leeds.
The main objective when planning
for the new store was to create
a contemporary boutique
feel, in keeping with TrinityвЂ™s
breathtaking architecture, that
maintained a fresh and welcoming
environment for customers.
The outcome is a stunning mix of
granite, chrome, rich dark wood
and hints of deep purple, which
successfully creates a luxurious,
relaxed atmosphere, perfect for
shopping in.

designers, Ungar & Ungar, Gerstner
and Phoenix Cut Diamonds.
Due to the stunning jewellery on
display, one of the most carefully
considered features of the new
store was the spectacular, glazed
shop front and interior displays,
which would need to be safe
and secure while maintaining
the beauty of the diamonds.
Championing the high quality
finish and excellent customer
service that local companies can
provide, Phillip Stoner called on
local glaziers, Halifax Glass Ltd.
Having previously worked together
on several projects, including the
jewellerвЂ™s first Manchester store
in 2010 and the expansion and
refurbishment of the companyвЂ™s
Victoria Quarter boutique in 2012,
Halifax Glass Ltd. were once again
able to provide an excellent finish,
resulting in a truly breathtaking
store.

over CrafthouseвЂ™s special Josper

My friend Ross went for the
baked cod, which was presented
beautifully and was equally tasty.
It was great to see Head Chef
Lee Bennett out of the kitchen
and chatting with the diners,
bringing over small tasters from
the menu. Great atmosphere

Jonathan
Morgan
Crispin Lofts is one of the
city centreвЂ™s biggest success
stories because just a year
after work restarted on a major
refurbishment programme to
create 82 stunning apartments
for the rentals market, the
building is now almost fully
occupied with just one penthouse
remaining.
The pace that the homes have let
is definitely a sign of the times in
a market with little development
activity and huge demand from
tenants looking for high quality
rental property. When this is
combined with a historic building
in a great location and smart
well-furnished interiors, developer
RushbondвЂ™s вЂ�build to letвЂ™ scheme
THE FOCAL POINT
OF THE NORTHERN QUARTER
ticks all the boxes. Standing on
the corner of North Street and
New York Road, the building
had previously sat in a partially
developed state for more than
10 years but now work is finished
itвЂ™s once again a proud landmark
building for the city.
brickwork are ideally suited to
modern apartment living. These
features have provided fantastic
foundations and endless potential
to create a unique selection of loft
style apartments ranging from
studios through to three bedroom
triplexes.
Morgans has acted as letting
agents on the development and
we were always confident that it
would strike a chord with tenants
looking for a special place to
call home and we already have a
waiting list from people wanting to
move in as and when apartments
come available.
Most of the apartments are split
level, with mezzanine decks, high
ceilings and huge windows which
flood the space with light. Nearly
every apartment is different
to its neighbour and each one
is furnished to an exceptional
standard to create some very
distinctive homes.
The building is full of character and
history after originally being built
in 1915 as home to Henry HeatonвЂ™s
Clothing Company and then
occupied by HW Poole & Sons
Boot and Shoe Manufacturers.
Both were distinguished Leeds
based businesses and major
employers in the city вЂ“ even today
thereвЂ™s still lots of people in Leeds
who worked there.
Somewhat ironically, despite all its
history, its traditional features, high
ceilings, tall windows and exposed
To see people living in Crispin
Lofts in such a short amount
of time is absolutely fantastic,
especially when you consider this
time two years ago it was little
more than a shell. ThereвЂ™s a major
shortage of rental properties
available in Leeds city centre and
hardly any brand new apartments
that are finished to such a high
standard.
The remaining penthouse is one
of just three stunning triplex
penthouse apartments and is a
completely unique city centre
home. ItвЂ™s furnished to an
exceptional standard and offers
well over a thousand square
feet of prime living space, three
double en-suite bedrooms and
three roof terraces that all offer
spectacular views over the city.
ItвЂ™s generating plenty of interest
and itвЂ™s undoubtedly one of the
most desirable apartments in the
North of England.
The developmentвЂ™s success is
undoubtedly down to offering
distinctive and markedly different
homes in which to live; combined
with a great location and a strong
sense of local community, typified
by the fantastic array of shops,
bars, eating places and local
businesses that support the cityвЂ™s
Northern Quarter.

STUDENTS EXAMINE ALL THAT
ALGERNON FIRTH HAS TO OFFER
A SHOW apartment is now
open for viewing at Algernon
Firth which is located in the city
centre and has become LeedsвЂ™
most eagerly anticipated new
student development.
The scheme is located in the heart
of the City centre just minutes
from Millennium Square, Leeds
University, Leeds Metropolitan
University and sits opposite Leeds
General Infirmary so itвЂ™s already
attracting interest from both
university and medical students.
The Grade II-listed building is
being transformed by respected
developers Rushbond into
homes for 111 students that will
be complete in time for the
September 2013 academic term.
It includes 17 cluster apartments,
26 studio flats, a wide range of
impressive duplex apartments
as well as an on-site gym and
laundry. Each cluster apartment
and studio is fully furnished
including flat screen televisions,
double beds and en-suite
facilities.

Let us take the hassle out of letting and renting
Firth is a grown up offering вЂ“ itвЂ™s
not the usual one size fits all
student accommodation normally
available вЂ“ the location, design,
layout and attention to detail
means the living space is unique
and will appeal to those wanting

SURANNE JONES TO STAR IN THE 20TH
ANNIVERSARY PRODUCTION OF
BEAUTIFUL THING
Direct from its West End
run the critically acclaimed
20th anniversary
production of Jonathan
HarveyвЂ™s classic play,
BEAUTIFUL THING will visit
West Yorkshire Playhouse
for one week only, from
3 вЂ“ 8 June.
The production stars BBC &
ITV star Suranne Jones,
Ex Hollyoaks heart throb
Oliver Farnworth and
BBCвЂ™s Waterloo Road and
Dancing on Ice finalist Zaraah
Abrahams.
Directed by Nikolai Foster,
BEAUTIFUL THING will run
alongside FosterвЂ™s production
SHERLOCK HOLMES вЂ“ THE
BEST KEPT SECRET, in the
Quarry Theatre, this is the first
time a directorвЂ™s work will play
simultaneously across both
stages at the Playhouse.
BEAUTIFUL THING is a glorious
urban love story between two
young men set on an inner city
housing estate. It tells the story
of teenager JamieвЂ™s relationship
with classmate and neighbour
Ste. Together the two boys
find comedy, warmth and the
music of Mama Cass through
their loud-mouthed next door
neighbour Leah. The play
exquisitely depicts what it is to
be sixteen, in the first flush of
love, and full of optimism.
Suranne Jones will star as
Sandra, JamieвЂ™s mother. Her
recent television includes two
series of the very popular
SCOTT & BAILEY as Rachel
Bailey for ITV1.
The show also stars Jake Davies
and Danny-Boy Hatchard. Jake
recently appeared in the ITV
drama A MOTHERS SON with
Hermione Norris and Martin
Clunes. He has also played
alongside Miranda Hart in
BBC1вЂ™s CALL THE MIDWIFE.
Jonathan Harvey wrote beautiful
thing when he was just 24. It
premiered at the Bush Theatre in
1993 and sold out its five-week
run before transferring to the
Donmar Warehouse, and then
the Duke of YorkвЂ™s, eventually
winning its author an Olivier
Award nomination and the John
Whiting Award.

THING are available at

Gabrielle aplin
The City Dweller team check out the latest
releases and live acts coming up this month
ALT- J
ALT-J have announced the
release of their new single,
BREEZEBLOCKS, on 20 May
2013 through Infectious Records.
It is the latest single from
their stunning debut LP, AN
AWESOME WAVE, released in
May 2012. The album is close
to platinum sales in the UK and
has sold an incredible 600,000
globally, making it one of the
biggest debut albums of recent
times.
In November 2012 they became
the winners of the prestigious
Barclaycard Mercury Prize,
The whipsmart, self taught 20 year old singer-songwriter from Bath,
Gabrielle has been writing and recording songs since she was 15.
and were also nominated three
times at this yearвЂ™s BRIT Awards
for Best British Breakthrough
Act, Best British Group and
Mastercard British Album of the
Year.
Growing up in a (self
confessed) вЂ�hippyвЂ™ household,
where music was a family
staple, she honed her craft
listening to Joni Mitchell,
Bruce Springsteen and Nick
Drake.
ALT-J were also recently chosen
by the BBC as one of the artists
to soundtrack a revamped series
of idents for the BBC Two and
BBC Two HD channel, launched
to mark BBC TwoвЂ™s status as
Channel of the Year.
The BBC has used instrumentals
of three ALT-J tracks, Something
Good, Intro and Fitzpleasure for
the three newly sound tracked
idents.
ALT-J will be playing to a
sell out crowd at Leeds O2
Academy 10th May.
At 17 she set up her own label
Never Fade Records (just
recently she announced her
first signing) and went on to
release 3 EPs, all of which
charted on iTunes.
Having sold over half a million
albums to date, THE PIGEON
DETECTIVES are back with WE
MET AT SEA, their first album in
two years.
These are the words of The
Pigeon Detectives singer MATT
BOWMAN, speaking when
the band had completed the
recording of the album. Having
already garnered a reputation as
one of the most raucous, thrilling
live acts in the UK, they have
siphoned this on-stage energy
into their most honest album yet.
вЂњFor the third album we almost
went against our instincts at
times,вЂќ Bowman concedes,
speaking of 2011вЂ™s Up Guards,
And At вЂ�Em. вЂњOn this one we
just wrote what came out, really
natural, we didnвЂ™t force anything,
and if something wasnвЂ™t good
enough we just threw it away.
Where possible, original live
takes were used; thereвЂ™s errors
left in, it all adds character. It
just made sense to us to write
a record that will translate
live and create a rock and roll
atmosphere at our shows.вЂќ

AGNETHA MAKES A UNIVERSAL RETURN
The songstress from ABBA
releases her new album вЂ�AвЂ™ on
May 13th. This coincides with
the new single вЂ�When You Really
Loved SomeoneвЂ™.
вЂњI never thought that IвЂ™d ever sing
again. But hearing the first three
songs, I just couldnвЂ™t say no!вЂќ
States Agnetha.
With these words, one of popular
musicвЂ™s most recognisable,
celebrated names of the past
forty years вЂ“ Agnetha FГ¤ltskog
36вЂѓ
| City Dweller Magazine
вЂ“ signals her return to the
spotlight.
Agnetha has been working with
renowned, Grammy-nominated
songwriter/producer Jorgen
Elofsson вЂ“ who has been
responsible for hits by Britney
Spears and Kelly Clarkson among
others вЂ“ and acclaimed producer/
arranger Peter Nordahl.
вЂњShe wanted to make music
again,вЂќ says Elofsson, вЂњBasically,
sheвЂ™s a musician, a songwriter/
singer who hasnвЂ™t done that for
a while. We saw her open up,
become much happier, with
music again in her life.вЂќ
The album features 10 tracks,
including вЂ�I ShouldвЂ™ve Followed
You HomeвЂ™ - a duet with Gary
Barlow вЂ“ and вЂ�I Keep Them On
The Floor Beside My BedвЂ™, one
of Agnetha first co-writes in
many years: вЂњI hadnвЂ™t written any
music for a long, long time,вЂќ she
says. вЂњBut I sat at the piano, and
suddenly it was there.вЂќ
