'Helen McCookerybook, formerly of indie treasures The Chefs and Helen & the Horns, is now a clever, tuneful singer- songwriter in a Velvet Underground meets Tracy Thorn kind of way. Shame she wasn’t on the same day as The Monochrome Set, who play today, because they would have appreciated her song ‘Saturday Night with the London Set’, about the interface between hedonism and the ageing process. But I’m sure they’ve heard it already. She had the crowd captivated, a gentle, strong, clever woman in her prime.'
