I was going to review a tremendous Other Lives gig at Brighton's tiny Audio last night, but Alexis Petridis has beaten me to it in The Guardian here... five stars fully deserved.

Opener Abi Wade also deserves a mention. A really striking solo-singer-songwriter-cellist... and there's not been many of them since Arthur Russell showed the way. But she's striking in another sense, hitting her cello with sticks for percussion, as well as bowing and picking at the strings. Have a look at the video here.
