NEWS: Lynks @ The Cluny

Lynks – aka Brett Elliot – has been causing a special kind of havoc for a couple of years now, the self-proclaimed ‘drag monster’ (occasionally backed by their Lynks Shower Gels) releasing a series of catchy as fuck in-yr-face queercore anthems and tongue-in-cheek provocations that have been getting a lot of attention all over. Imagine Leigh Bowery fronting Fischer Spooner or something equally, gloriously demented. Just check out the video for Everyone’s Hot (& I’m Not) and you’ll get the idea (does it remind anyone else of My Vag by Awkwafina?).

And now they’re heading out on the DIY Now & Next Tour, topping the bill for the magazine’s new talent tour that takes in six dates, one of which stops off at Newcastle’s Cluny on Friday 24^th February alongside Glaswegian post-punks Vlure and Circe.

Reports suggest that the Lynks live performance is something to behold, so if you fancy some banging eighties-tinged synth pop, irony-drenched queer lyrics and delicious costumes, you know where to be.

Lynks, Vlure and Circe play The Cluny, Newcastle on Friday 24^th February.
