Musicians performing are:
R. A. Phillips - R. A. Phillips is a musician from London. He works principally in two styles of music, performing as a singer songwriter playing his own self written compositions and as an instrumentalist, composing imaginative and experimental music based around a concept. With a wide range of influences from many styles of music he likes to create a mix of sounds, vibe and forms to let his music go where ever his inspiration takes him.
Gabi Garbutt - Part punk poet, part art pop multi-instrumentalist, Gabi Garbutt’s music has been championed by radio DJs such as BBC6 Music’s Steve Lamacq, Cerys Matthews and Chris Hawkins, and Radio X’s John Kennedy, as well as fellow musicians such as Ezra Furman, Pete Doherty, Frank Turner and Du Blonde, the latter inviting Gabi to release an E.P on her label Daemon T.V and collaborating on the lead track ‘Panic’.
The Yes Mess - Joyful and damaged, the vocal combinations live to tell the tale, harmonising and winning.
The solid guitar rhythm will welcome you on a journey through the streets of, 'Illness and Danger', the 'Land of the Laughing' and the afterlife of a 'Caterpillar'. The snarl and passion, groove and nagging pop melody, will boot-through as the drums roll out the swings and blows, supported by tight, peachy bass beats, and lead guitar experimentations; cheeky, creepy and bewailing. The accordion waves nightmarish imaginations; swiftly U-turning between klezmer to Cuban, jingle to jangle.
Rob Corcoran - Dublin troubadour Rob Corcoran is a solid favourite on the London/UK folk and Americana scene, with his songs already being covered by frish folk legend Christy Moore. His lyrically compelling, beautifully observed songs are drenched in Celtic soul, drawing from the same deep wells as Van Morrison and Mike Scott. The heart-on-sleeve poetry of his North American influences (John Prine, Hank Williams, Leonard Cohen, etc) runs through his songs. Rob's 2017 album Inverse Alchemy has blown away reviewers at AmericanaUK, Fatea, Folking.com, and many others.
