THE MOUTH MAGAZINE AUTUMN SPECIAL – A GIG WITH RACHEL SERMANNI

WE’RE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THE INAUGURAL LIVE EVENT TO BE STAGED BY THE MOUTH MAGAZINE – AND WE’RE ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED TO REVEAL THAT THE HEADLINER IS CARRBRIDGE SONGWRITER RACHEL SERMANNI. OUR AUTUMN SPECIAL WILL TAKE PLACE AT CAFÉ INDIEPENDENT IN SCUNTHORPE, ON FRIDAY 14TH NOVEMBER.

Earlier this year we dropped in to the Café to interview Clint Boon (Inspiral Carpets), who was booked to DJ its opening night. We were enormously impressed – not only a great leftfield space, but a lottery-funded and volunteer-maintained social enterprise coffee-and-culture house created to provide training and work experience opportunities for young people. In an unfashionable Northern town battered by prejudicial TV show SKINT (Channel Four’s divide-and-rule benefits propaganda), the Café has given Scunthorpe something to be proud of: a non-judgemental and non-corporate hub. Its 200-capacity basement is the perfect spot for intimate gigs, and has seen Simone Felice and John Bramwell perform. Clint Boon returns soon for a warm-up show with his resurgent Inspiral Carpets.

One beautiful day in late March…
