Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * *

The first band on the stage on the Saturday in Elevator for the Threshold Festival was the recently renamed The Tenements and despite the tight timings that quite rightly imposed on the artists to keep the afternoon on track, gave a very good account of themselves and their music.

Formally known as Matt Reekie and the Bridges, the three piece band showed their forceful side during the six songs and gave the early festival goers something splendid to hang their enjoyment of the weekend upon. Despite the pressure of kicking starting the second day, the three lads performed well and their opening number When I See Her Face  was well received and a cracking song to be introduced to the group with.
