Nizlopi
Fine Story

FDM

WE SAY

We featured Nizlopi's future smash JCB some months ago and a great deal has happened to them since then. For one, their excellent album Half These Songs Are About You has been released on their FDM label through Nova/Pinnacle. Also immiment is the double A side single Fine Story/ Girls (Girls is great too). Plus they showcase for media today, Thursday, at 1pm at 5 Cavendish Square. And they play In The City on Sunday, onstage 10.45pm at Baby Grand (downstairs). If you haven't see them live yet, you must.
