The Shed – Leicester
Posted by Mez | Filed under News
A big thanks to everyone who came out to support us at the battle last weekend, and congrats to Signify who are going on to the final! We had a wicked time at our best gig yet, from the first chiming notes of Turn Away to the final stabs that close Poker.
It’s a busy time for Captain Horizon at the moment. Lots of gigs means we’re really getting a handle on our set, and thanks to our audiences we’re having a great time performing it to you. Next week we’re off to the East Midlands for our first out of town gig, where we’ll be playing with the venerable Mars Bonfire (http://www.myspace.com/marsbonfirespace) at the Shed in Leicester!
Then we’re taking three weeks off to work on a new batch of songs, before playing our EP Launch party at the old Wharf on April 25th. It’s gonna be a blast so come down and enjoy yourselves!
See you there folks!

Following their success in their Banks’ Battle of the Bands heat in February, Captain Horizon are through to the semi-finals and the time for battle is almost upon us!
They will be battling two other bands this Saturday, 14th March from 7pm at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall bar.
You can check out the event on Facebook here or add it to your MySpace calendar if that’s your thing.
Tickets can be purchased from the band or through this website for £4 by clicking the shiny ‘Buy Now’ button on the right of the page. Tickets can also be bought on the door on the night for £5.
So come along, it will definitely be worth it. If previous performances are anything to go by it should be one hell of a night, so join us on Saturday evening to rock the hell out of Wolves Civic!

We are coming for you Wolverhampton...
It would also be great to see any new fans there who might have discovered the band on Top Rock Radio. Thanks to them for Captain Horizon’s first ever radio play on Sunday evening, it was awesome! The band are now featured artists on Top Rock Radio so you can request their tracks at any time. Also, in case you missed Sunday’s show and Captain Horizon’s radio debut, the Podcast is now available.
