SUMMARY:Adelaide Taylor + Andy Greaves
DESCRIPTION:Adelaide Taylor is an up and coming artist and multi-instrumentalist based in West Yorkshire. Inspired by the likes of Billy Joel\, Bowie and Springsteen\, she’s dedicated to creating heartfelt music that focuses on narrative as much as composition; her performances are always raw and powerful.\nAt just 25\, Adelaide’s worked with fantastic players such as Neil Fairclough (Queen and Adam Lambert) plus Amy Wadge (Grammy winning writer of Ed Sheeran’s Thinking Out Loud). Most notably\, she recently had her track ‘Bad Place’ played on BBC Radio 2.\nShe’ll be releasing her debut album at the back end of this year\, but in the meantime it’s business as usual- scribbling her thoughts down on paper and putting music to them!\n\nAndy Greaves is a stalwart of the Calderdale music scene – a singer\, multi-instrumentalist\, songwriter\, poet\, and dynamic performer who began in West Yorkshire folk clubs before gaining attention in the 1980s with post-punk band Chinese Gangster Element\, recording two sessions for BBC Radio 1’s John Peel. Since then\, he has explored genres from punk to country while staying rooted in traditional British folk\, co-leading The Tragics\, fronting Edward Molby\, performing with Ghost School\, and continuing to appear as a solo artist and poet on the local scene.

SUMMARY:The Silver Reserve + Admiral Drowsy & The Narwals
DESCRIPTION:Matthew Sturgess\, who performs as ‘The Silver Reserve’\, plays delicate\, sparse music on a classical guitar\, crafting intricate melodies around thoughtful and evocative lyrics. At times creating dense\, layered atmospherics\, this is music that doesn’t rush and takes its sweet\, sad time to unfurl and sneak under the skin.\n“I have fallen in love with The Silver Reserve. Songs of warmth and beauty that scratch at the inside of your heart. In a world that sits heavy on your chest\, this is music that reminds you how to breathe.’ Thea Gilmore (Cooking Vinyl)\n”Beautiful\, fragmentary songs which slowly dismantle you.” Seamus Fogarty (Domino Records/Fence Collective)\n“The Silver Reserve is beautiful as fuck and funny as fuck and beautiful as fuck.” Kathryn Joseph (Rock Action Records)\nhttps://thesilverreserve.bandcamp.com/\nAdmiral Drowsy is the song writing veneer of Luke Redfern Scott. After a lenthly time overseas\, Luke is currently back in West Yorkshire and has reconvened with a group of old friends forming a new band creating music with numerous guitars\, drums\, a few synthesisers and other potential oddities. His music has an unsettling dream-folk quality with expressive yet restrained vocials and an off kilter ambience all its own.\n“Like Syd Barrett if he’d survived\, straightened up and reverted back to literate and idiosyncratic folk-pop” – Elsewhere\n“Challenging\, adventurous and downright ominous mutant folk” – RNZ\nhttps://admiraldrowsy1.bandcamp.com/…/industrial…\nhttps://www.facebook.com/AdmiralDrowsy

SUMMARY:Bhajan Buoy + Piro + Dean McPhee + Bass Ritual DJ
DESCRIPTION:Bhajan Bhoy (Netherlands)Ever-evolving shoegaze guitar and psychedelic electronica from Ajay Saggar with new release on Cardinal Fuzz / Feeding Tube Recordshttps://bhajanbhoy.bandcamp.com/\nPiró (Spain)Solo progressive raw post-folk guitar and singing from Zaragoza inspired by Richard Dawson and Sir Richard Bishop.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kP4NHQIR7CM\nDean McPheeBradford’s cosmic ambient electric guitar pioneerhttps://deanmcphee.bandcamp.com/\nplus Bass Ritual DJ set (140 / Dub / Jungle) for afters\n\n7pm – late (live music finished in time for last trains to Leeds/Manc).\nFREE ENTRY with donations for acts gratefully accepted\n— more info —\nBhajan BhoyDrawing from a deep well of psychedelia\, Bhajan Bhoy further shifts the parameters of the genre with a beautiful and meditative set of tracks. Within this kaleidoscopic sonic universe\, you will find raga-esque excursions\, meditative Dream House drone\, Laurel Canyon-recalling folk\, electronic soundscapes and heavy guitar riffola (sometimes two chords are enough!). This is the sound of freedom! Imagine Pandit Pran Nath\, Spacemen 3\, Pauline Oliveros and Don Cherry drinking psilocybin tea and letting loose in a studio.\n“a unique soundworld broad enough to encompass wild psych-noise guitar\, dream-pop lullabies\, and futuristic drones with thrilling results” / Mojo Magazine\n“With BHAJAN BHOY\, Saggar synthesizes all of the stylistic approaches he’s explored over the years\, swirling them into an intoxicating musical blend\, with an earthy spirituality. Even the project’s name reflects the dual aspects of Saggar’s upbringing coming together in harmony. In Hindi\, a “bhajan” is a devotional song\, sung in the mandir\, or temple\, while “bhoy” is a Scottish and Irish derivation for a young man. There’s a searching quality to Bhajan Bhoy\, as if Saggar is still hunting for transcendence with each track\, whether through an expansive drone\, an orchestral facility on the piano\, or an electronics-augmented raga that threatens to dip into noise” (Erick Bradshaw / writer and WFMU DJ).\n—\nPiró is the project of Alex\, a musical individual from the fearsome city of extreme seasons and the cierzo wind\, affectionately nicknamed Zaragoza. A proud member of the city’s struggling DIY scene\, he finds his voice in an oasis called Arrebato. His melodies navigate folk music with diverse roots\, primarily driven by the guitar.\nHis songs narrate the disillusionment of politics\, the joy of humanity\, and the non-accidental nature of anxiety\, all infused with a deep love for the instrument.\n“A self-confessed lover of Richard Dawson and Richard Bishop… although really it’s only because they’re named Richard\, and basically\, he adores every Richard in the world.”\nhttps://md-us.bandcamp.com/…/es-mejor-prevenir-que-causar\n\nPIRÓ — Inter Sopena en ARREBATO – YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ja8bizHCfD8…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxXbzn4J9aI…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNcIQ2FbE6Y…\n—\nDean McPhee plays a Fender Telecaster through a valve amp and subwoofer with kick drum and effects\, and he is influenced by Dub\, Modal Jazz\, British Folk\, Underground Electronic Music and Psychedelic Rock. A self-taught musician with a fluid technique and an inventive approach to sound\, his music is melodic\, hypnotic and trance-inducing with a deep sense of space.\nDean has toured the UK and Europe and opened for artists such as Thurston Moore\, The Magic Band\, Acid Mothers Temple\, Michael Chapman\, Meg Baird\, Michael Hurley\, Josephine Foster\, Emeralds\, Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe\, Charalambides and Wolf People. His music has received international radio play and has been acclaimed by the likes of MOJO Magazine\, The Wire Magazine\, Dusted\, Louder than War\, Uncut Magazine\, Brainwashed and The Quietus.\n“At any given time\, there are always a handful of visionary guitarists who carve out their own compelling and distinctive niche\, as well as many more who exhibit virtuosic technique or write consistently great songs. McPhee’s work checks off all three of those boxes\, but his greatest moments reach another plane altogether where it feels like he is channeling something much deeper\, more timeless\, and almost supernatural”(Anthony D’Amico\, Brainwashed)\n“Set within an electric ancestry that includes Michael Karoli’s solos in Can\, the hymnal rock of Popol Vuh’s Daniel Fichelscher and the sonic spaciousness of dub\, as well as the emotional punch of John Martyn’s dawn-lit Echoplex epic\, ‘Small Hours’.” (Frances Morgan\, The Quietus)\n“Definitely one of the leading contemporary guitar stylists in the UK\, and in the world”(Steve Barker\, BBC ‘On the Wire’)

SUMMARY:Rosh + Rebecca Spooner
DESCRIPTION:ROSH is a Sheffield based jazz -folk group based around singer-songwriter Roshan Lal. With their intricate orchestration\, jazz-inflected rhythms and multi-layer harmonies they create a sound both fragile and beautiful yet full of energy and invention.\n‘Beautiful stuff… warm folk music’ – BBC Introducing\n“Intimate and warm not to mention fantastically talented” – Sydney and Matilda\nhttps://www.facebook.com/RoshLalMusic/\nhttps://roshlalmusic.bandcamp.com/\n\nRebecca Spooner’s ruminative\, contemporary folk songs lie somewhere between folk and pop – honest\, a bit scruffy\, and homemade\,they’re sometimes sad\, sometimes optimistic but always truthful.

SUMMARY:Sarram + Futures We Lost
DESCRIPTION:S A R R A M is the instrumental avant-garde solo project of the Sardinian based Valerio Marras. He creates crushing yet graceful compositions where electro-doom\,heavy ambient\, drone-jazz and minimal post-rock blend to invite the listener on an intense sound journey.\n“A sonic adventure filled with highs and lows that will challenge your very subconscious.” – The Sleeping Shaman\n“Sarram is not just engaging\, but intense\, emotionally vulnerable\, and beautiful\, such that it pulls the listener back\, to pay attention” – Angry Metal Guy\nwww.facebook.com/sarramproject\nhttps://sarram.bandcamp.com/\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwWomUqOyPA&t=1107s\nFUTURES WE LOST is the dark post-industrial\, cinematic techno soundscape of electronic artist and producer Doug Gordon. Rising from the ashes of 2020’s grief and inspired by the artist’s ancestral roots under the crumbling mills and industrial scars of the northern English landscape his music explores these post-industrial graveyards and dystopian future visions through the lens of our present day neo technological horrors. Sometimes a brutalist techno monolith to this mechanised slavery nightmare\, sometimes a dark ambient soundtrack to the distortion and living death of our dreams. A sonic memorial to all those futures we lost…\n“A blend of dark ambient\, hauntronica and witch house\, this hallucinatory\,warped and fractured sound is music for forgotten places and fading thoughts” – The Brutalist\nhttps://www.futureswelost.co.uk/\nhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100089817341744#\nhttps://futureswelost.bandcamp.com/album/futures-we-lost

SUMMARY:Anta + Nope.O
DESCRIPTION:ANTA (Bristol) Loud and heavy organ-led instrumental progressive post-rock FFO Magma\, Tarkus era ELP\, big riffs. Ears still ringing from their last gig here in 2024. https://anta.bandcamp.com/album/organesson NOPE.0 One-note-wonder double-drumming repeato-rock ‘supergroup’ revisit their early stuff feat. members of Lands & Body/That Fucking Tank\, Cowtown\, Mucky Sailor and Holodrum. Also very loud. https://obscenebabyauction.bandcamp.com/track/weird-staff-demo at Puzzle Hall Inn\, 21 Hollins Mill Lane\, Sowerby Bridge\, HX6 2RF 8pm – 10pm FREE ENTRY with donations for bands gratefully accepted. Done in time for trains back to Leeds / Manc. \n —- more info —-  \nANTA “We’re old and familiar friends. These compositions represent the thing that happens when we get together. They aren’t representative of one individual\, one moment in time\, or one chain of decisions. Some are ancient refrains\, beginning life as habits and warm-ups\, in-jokes; others are distilled jams; more still are refined from MIDI sketches and ideas whistled into voice notes. On whatever terms these elements become something we’re happy to stand in front of you and play\, to put on record\, so be it.” So ANTA describe the process behind 2024’s Organesson. Characteristic of the Bristolian Sci-Prog quartet\, the record weaves together mesmerising\, muscular riffs in insanely loud compositions that extend well into excess. Less typical is the polarisation at play\, where granular polymeters will yield in an instant to passages of one or two-note simplicity. The record strides from one raging refrain to the next\, lurching between devastation\, joy\, chaos\, and stirring the themes accumulated along the way in exposition. “It comes down to those precious sweaty hours” the group suggest\, “in which we get to vibrate these sounds into your face and chest\, and you can dance and laugh with us. This is the stuff we remember and plan for\, the moments we talk about the most when writing these songs.” ANTA’s live shows\, ceaseless onslaughts of deafening riffs\, have been notable for maintaining the same intense energy among festival crowds or to three people in a basement. Walls of amps going full-pelt. Pounding\, ornate drums and metals\, wherein drummer James King is relentless in discovering strange and mighty rhythms. Full-drawbar organs\, electric pianos\, piercing synths from keys-man Alex Bertram-Powell. Joe Garcia’s growling bass that strides rather than walks. Ben Harris’ all-encompassing\, dizzying guitars. Hypnotic\, communal\, compelling\, indefinite energy. Organesson is the latest effort to put this feeling on record.  \nNOPE.0 Formed in 2008 as a side project for members of Leeds 6 DIY scene regulars That Fucking Tank and Mucky Sailor\, NOPE was an umbrella for a rotating cast of friends and collaborators to play semi-improvised maximal-minimalist noise rock eventually settling into the quartet of Andy Abbott (guitar/synth)\, Steve Nuttall (drums)\, Jon Nash (Drums) and Patrick Dowson (vocals\, synth\, guitar). In this format they recorded two albums\, 2012’s ‘Revision’ and 2014’s ‘Walker’\, honing their own brand of long-form kraut and psych-inspired progressive repeato-rock. NOPE toured UK and Europe sharing stages with Richard Dawson\, Nissenenmondai\, Acid Mothers Temple\, Owls\, and a final gig with Boris in 2016. Ten years later they are returning in a stripped back form as NOPE.0 for a second revisit of their droning one-riff origins. http://www.yvonnecarmichael.com/nope2010/ https://obscenebabyauction.bandcamp.com/album/the-whitewood-sessions https://obscenebabyauction.bandcamp.com/album/revision https://obscenebabyauction.bandcamp.com/album/walker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNnToHufMjY “One of the most thrilling and intense bands residing in our fair\, bustling city of Leeds. This ferocious four-piece mix in some of the meatiest\, furry rock riffs to the riot of sound. I’ve heard literally tons of psych bands in the last few years. None have quite that verve\, imagination\, heaviosity or spirit NOPE have.”
9/10 Norman Records “Nope are masters at finding one brilliantly brain-lodging guitar hook and pounding it into the ground\, extracting every last nuance and leaving it in a squalling mush.”
