The Middle Ages + Easy Tide, Thomas House – April 1
The Middle Ages, that’d be Anthony and ChrisD who are thumped regulars with Carroll and Greg, will play a rare live gig this April 1st. This is the band that was formed by Anthony Mackey to play his solo rock music but he lacked the ego required to play as a solo artist so the band became known as The Middle Ages. The album that Mackey released, Still Metal, was rebranded as a TMA album. No sooner had the band learned those songs Anthony had written another album. The Middle Ages will record those as a band next.
Also playing are a band called Easy Tide. They are a three piece rock band that look about 12. They spent a few months recording their debut album and released it at the end of February 2016.
