Jarvis Cocker, Beck, Jamie Liddell – mid-week music-fest!

If Thursday is now the new Friday, then ArtsWom declares Wednesday the new rock-yourself-silly-with-short-previews-of-upcoming-musical-brilliance day, for we have three fresh promo clips to whet your appetite for this week’s episode of From the Basement on Sky Arts, Saturday.

First up, Jamie Lidell continues to astound with his extraordinary talents and fantastic, soulful voice. Despite probably being the least well-known artist to perform in this upcoming episode, ArtsWom marks this exciting performer as the one to watch out for. Not convinced? Check out the video below and prepare to be surprised by the vocals…

Jamie Lidell – The City

Beck consistently brings the weirdness and rarely disappoints in doing so. As this thirty-second promo shows, the “most idiosyncratic artist” of alt-rock can still raise a few eyebrows and get the odd foot a-tapping.

Beck - Motorcade

Although largely out of the public eye of late, the man who famously invaded the stage during Michael Jackson’s typically-bizarre, pseudo-messianic performance at the 1996 BRIT awards, continues to create music and perform. Jarvis Cocker has lost none of his unique, yet trend-setting, style.

Jarvis Cocker – Fat Children

The third episode of From the Basement hits your screens on Saturday 15 December at 9pm, Sky Arts channel 267.
