Music Monday: Jake Bugg's Secret Show

Hi everyone! So last Wednesday was a pretty exciting day for me, I went to Jake Bugg's secret location show in London!

 It was in a small upstairs room in a pub, the first venue that Jake had ever headlined in London before, so it was a pretty big deal. There weren't many people there so it was a very intimate gig, not one that you could really sing the lyrics to but I did anyway, and not surprisingly the crowd mostly consisted of teenage girls, but my brother spotted Jake's friends who were in the Two Fingers video which was cool. He let us request songs and played a few new ones from his next album that will be coming out soon, and he played everything on acoustic guitar with no band, which sounded great! Definitely made up for missing most of his set at Reading this year, and he played and sang really well. I'm really looking forward to his album coming out, the new songs that he played sounded amazing, so I'm thinking the rest will too. I was really lucky too as the tickets were free as my brother (who is the luckiest person when it comes to competitions) won them, and after the gig we got to meet Jake! Very shy and nice in person, and also surprisingly about the same height as me. Got a pic with him an all which was nice, he took the time to take pictures and chat with everyone there!
The new video for Slumville Sunrise is out now and is really weird, but funny, and it contains Elvis. What's not to like? The album "Shangri La", named after the space in which it was recorded, comes out on 18th November, so not too long a wait!
