May days in Barcelona
"May Days in Barcelona is the work of multi-instrumentalist Simon Clowes.
Solo shows are based around Simon using live loops, to create a melodic wall of sound, with violins weaving over fuzzy shoegaze guitars and analogue synths, drawing on elements of Post-Rock, Minimalism and Baroque Pop"
Hosted by Franc and I and Stan Skinny
