A Happy Salmon + Andrew Metheven
March 8 @ 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm
The music of A Happy Salmon is the new project of Max Lille former leader of Leeds heavy shoegaze band Slow Team. Blending ethereal pop songwriting with a prog-leaning mentality A Happy Salmon creates immersive, slow-burning songs that swell, shimmer, and surprise. Expect atmosphere, emotional pull, and moments of quiet intensity that blossom into something huge.
“Taking inspiration from the likes of Massive Attack, Deftones and James Blake Max Lille creates an ominous, mysterious atmosphere as darkness bleeds out of the speakers” – Dead Good Music
“Haunting carefully crafted songs full of eerie atmosphere” – Bacchanalia Magazine
Andrew Metheven is a lofi/alt-folk songwriter. He released his first EP, A Quiet Life, in March 2022, and his first album – Sister Winter – in June 2024, and has since performed at grassroots venues and festivals across Yorkshire.
Still living in his native Bradford, his songs are about births, hills, loss, birds, daydreams. His live performances – characterised by his melodic guitar finger-picking – are unapologetically raw and unfiltered.
