Radio BBC Hereford & Worcester - Friday Session March 2008 "The slice
of entertainment 'Sister Sandwich' serve up is never run of the mill,and
tonight they superseeded themselves with a batch of balmy tunes delivered
in a fun, but at no times floury style. I think the band are Bewdley born
and bred, so rose to the occasion at this free night. I don't know if
they need the dough, but 'Sister Sandwich' do have a new, crisp sounding
C.D. out now called 'Tales From The Toaster' costing a pittance, that
may help earn them a crust, though visits to their myspace mean you can
sample their flavours for free whenever you |
COCOMAD
When the Sister, asked me where he could change into his dress, I was wondering whether COCOMAD (Cotteridge Community Music, Arts & Dance festival) was quite the place for Sister Sandwhich - especially when I heard about Sister's bad boy past (or was it present?!) - we hadn't even got a beer tent! But when those bad boys got on the stage, 'dressed' and sandwiched, it was was a chunky bread, ham off-the-bone with a decent amount of piccalilli type experience (as in one of your favourite sarnies - not one of those catfood on margerined white bread ones that are wet from lettuce not dried properly). As they belted out 'Walking on Sunshine' on one of the hottest days this summer, I could see that everyone was enjoying the performance .... my favourite was the courruption of Eton Rifles into Eating Trifles, however, this has caused a rift between myself and some hardened Jam/Weller fans - who will never recover from the new association. 'I can't get you out of my head' will from now on be remembered in demented psycho-stalker slow tones. Loads of people raved about the band and the COCOMAD committee all agreed it was one of the best performances of the day, we would definitely like them back next year.......

| Seven Stars
Hi, just like to say thankyou for giving The Stars a proper send-off last night, what better way to do it than a chap dressed up as a sandwich, and an assortment of fine, fine covers. Keep it up, I'll be at your next local gig!

Take a bite of this Sarnie!
I've listened to and loved their 2000 CD release 'Ready, Bready, Cook' (as 'Sister Sandwich & The Buttered Buns') for the last five years and now having seen them live at last I'm an even bigger fan! I travelled up from Bristol to see them at their local 'The Talbot' in Bewdley, Worcestershire and not only are they a VERY fucking funny band but they're also all excellent musicians. Rich a.k.a Sister Sandwich came on stage dressed as a huge sandwich in a dress complete with chef's hat and mad staring eyes glasses and the joke might have worn thin but he's also a naturally very funny front man who can sing and keep the crowd dancing and laughing all night! With their high energy set of varied pop and punk covers the emphasis is on FUN but there's just the right mix of humour, love of the material and musicianship that stops it all being just one big repetitive piss-take! ou will enter the very surreal world of the Sandwich, listen, understand and leave with a big cheesey grin on your face. From their 'Ready, Bready, Cook' CD they played '500 Miles, Surfin' U.S.A, You Really Got Me and Kids in America' and through the cider haze I can also remember 'Toxic' (Britney!), 'Eton Rifles'(= Eat Some Trifle!), 'Swords of a Thousand Men' (so funny!), 'Ant Music'(just try not to sing-a-long!), some punked up 'Kylie' song and 'Gay Bar' brilliantly re-done as 'Tal-Bot' in honour of the venue that's also their local. There were other songs and the crowd that danced, sang along and LAUGHED all the way through definately wanted more and so do I! If you ever need cheering up and want to see a superb party band then Sister Sandwich is for you! Enjoy…
