The Ranch stick around for a couple of days

Club Burrito, Canterbury

I think it may have been due to a cancellation elsewhere - not sure - but amazing Maltese progsters The Ranch stuck around Canterbury for a couple of days after their mindblowing Crash of Moons appearance on Wednesday. Thursday night they showed up at an open mic at the Black Griffin. I wasn't there, but heard about it form Juliet who'd booked herself a slot that night but then generously gave it to them. There they encountered Dominic "Mistah Wolf" Wolf, a Whitstable-based beatboxer who provides percussion for local reggae stalwarts Hey Maggie these days. The next night they'd been booked to play Club Burrito and as well as playing more-or-less the same set I'd seen at Bramley's, they were joined by both Dom (who can beatbox effortlessly in weird time signatures) and a young MC called Jack Mythos who has rapidly become ubiquitous on the local scene. Jack can (and will) freestyle until the cows come home. What a band!
