Following on from the success of her latest album ‘Pour Me Out’, Kristy Apps is launching her single of the same name. On release ‘Pour Me Out’ the album was named Album Of The Week by Rave Magazine, and charted consistently in the 4ZzZ top 20 highest played through the months following – including most played during the week of August 8.
Reviews of ‘Pour Me Out’ have been emphatically positive:
“A truly amazing reworking of salt n pepa’s Push It… sung as if Bruce Springsteen wrote it for Patti Smith, it is something to experience.” On this impressive effort Apps’ has found a way to bridge the more intimate and bolder sides of her songs.”

ROSS DE CHENE HURRICANES
If you plan on coming to Yah Yah’s on Thursday organizers have warned you had better bring a helmet because there will be stones flying and shit exploding all over the place. Be prepared for a groovey garage rock onslaught early in the evening administered by the accurately titled 2 piece Ross de Chene Hurricanes.

SCREEN SECT: American Movie (Chris Smith, 1999)
A strangely inspirational documentary, this follows the at-times comedic misadventures of manically driven Milwaukee film-maker Mark Borchardt, as he struggles against bad planning, financial hardship and an amateur cast and crew, to complete his independent horror film ‘Coven’. A must-see.
Doors 7.30pm
