One of the essential musical excursions of this year's Fringe. the batty but brilliant Cope stretches out solo all this week. playing songs from every period of his career. (How about an acoustic ‘Reynard The Fox‘. Jules. eh?). No confirmation yet if he’s going to tackle some of his recent ambient meditation music, though. 00 several times. Heck, go every night.

I The Lost Soul Band Venue. Calton Road, 557 3073. The first of two Festival- time shows for the rising and prolific Edinburgh band, the second following next week.

I llarllngheart and The llaked See Venue. Calton Road, 557 3073. 9pm. Sugar-sweet vocals very much in evidence over the Kirkcaldy foursome’s churning guitars. Go and buy their debut album.

“House Student Union. Holyrood Road.

556 5184. l2.30am. £6.50 (£5). Getting more indefinably genre-loopy as time goes on, as their new cassette, Rough And Ready demonstrates. Trad Celtic sounds with an African beat and dub effects slapped on for good measure. bluegrass merged with grunge . . . and is that a didgeridoo i hear in there?

I Makoeaa Mambo Club. West Tollcross. 228 3252. llpm—4am. £3 (£2.50). A steaming blend of reggae. soul and African pop from an Edinburgh band who’ve been honing their act for years. First of three nights.
