mmmmpohhh

Apparently it doesn't take just milkshake to bring the boys to the yard. Cargo reckon it takes a bit of live music, DJ's tearing up the wheels of steel and even candyfloss and popcorn! Did I also forget to mention its all for free? I'm game as they definitely know the way to this boys heart, but the real reason why I'm excited comes in the form of genre-defying MPHO. She first came under my radar when she opened for Mr Hudson in Manchester last month and didn't fail to impress.  Sure, her debut single 'BoxNLocks' is strong - a slick electronic pop tune with an urban edge that almost seems it was written specifically for droptop-down convertible mustang driving. But it was seeing perform her rendition of Kate Bush's 'Running Up That Hill' (above) live that plucked some heartstrings, and live is where MPHO really comes into her element. So do what you must to get down to Cargo tonight, or miss this at your musical peril.
