EVER wondered what Johnny Depp’s stunt double does when not risking his life to save Hollywood’s most precious cheekbones? Turns out Pirates of the Caribbean cast member Scott Sener is a musician. He supports Camden band Earth Prayer – fronted by Heidi Jo Hines, daughter of former Wings guitarist and Moody Blues founder member Denny Laine – at a free gig at Scars Studio, 20 Castlehaven Road on Saturday.
Sener has invited cast members so keep your eyes peeled for the genuine article – Mr Depp has been known to pop up at the odd underground gig – ask Babybird.
• Fellow music lovers, it’s all happening. Once you’ve completed the three peaks challenge of Elton, Neil Diamond and Robert Plant at Electric Proms (October 28-30) – here’s what’s coming up: Regular readers will know this is my absolute fave series of gigs – Mencap Little Noise Sessions return to the Union Chapel (November 15-20) with Tom Jones, Paolo Nutini and Hurts the latest headliners to be announced.
Can’t believe we’re talking about the Camden Crawl already but early bird tickets go on sale at the Bull and Gate launch gig (October 28) – The Chapman Family, DELS, Hook & the Twin, John & Jehn, Martyna Baker and the inevitable secret guest to be announced by Twitter of course!
If you missed Tim Robbins at the Union Chapel, you can catch him supporting Paolo Nutini at the Q Awards gigs at HMV Forum (October 22). Also playing are Jamiroquai (October 20), Chase and Status (October 22) and Mark Ronson & The Business INTL (+ Rose Elinor Dougal) (October 23).
• Bravo N-Dubz and Akala for Mobo nominations – find out if they won on October 20.
