Bought a copy of The Last Dinner Party CD. I'll probably never open it as I listen to the Dolby Atmos mix on Apple Music. But support artists - buy music.
Emily Roberts, the lead guitarist from The Last Dinner Party, playing the solo from Don’t Stop Me Now while playing in the Queen cover band called Fat Bottomed Girls.
Yay! The Last Dinner Party have added a Belfast date to their UK and Eire tour. Plus additional Dublin and London dates. Tickets on sale tomorrow. The Belfast gig is in The Telegraph Building on the 18th September. See pic for all tour dates.
““It’s ‘I will have you,’ which is like, bullshit,” Morris tells Variety from her London flat. “There’s no good word to fit in there. I was like, ‘Why can’t we find a word?’ And it’s because there’s something so powerful about a woman saying ‘I will fuck you,’ about being active rather than passive in sex. "
The Last Dinner Party Talk Debut Album and Breakout Hit ‘Nothing Matters’
The Last Dinner Party album is very cinematic and feels like it has “classical” influences. Do some of the band members have formal musical training from university?
The Last Dinner Party are the real deal. Their debut album is superb. It was all recorded before their first single put them in the spotlight. See album notes on Apple Music.
I was wondering who drums for The Last Dinner Party. It’s Rebekah Rayner. She also drums for The 1975 and others. Several bands I’m into don’t have a drummer and use session drummers. The drummer shortage is real 😊
Last week saw The Last Dinner Party win the Rising Star Award at the Rolling Stone UK Awards in collaboration with Remy Martin. We take a look at their breakout year and 2024 - which promises their debut album and biggest gig yet.
I am so looking forward to The Last Dinner Party album, due in February.
“Elsewhere, ‘Portrait of a Dead Girl’ has a grandeur reminiscent of Queen with a dash of Wolf Alice’s rock’n’roll snarl.” - From the RollingStone UK article in the previous post.
I've said here before that the way The Last Dinner Party appeared fully formed is very reminiscent of how Queen spent three years playing small live shows a lot from 1970 to 1973.
