SUMMARY:LANDE HEKT + THE POPGUNS + MUMBLE TIDE
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents….. \nLANDE HEKT\nTHE POPGUNS\nMUMBLE TIDE\nSunday 19 April\nMOTH Club\, Old Trades Hall\, Valette St\, London\, E9 6NU\n7pm | £13.50 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/f4d01f8d742e \nLANDE HEKT has quietly become one of the UK’s best underground songwriters. On her 2021 debut full-length\, Going To Hell\, and 2022’s House Without a View\, she explored her queer identity\, sobriety\, and childhood trauma through the lens of heartfelt\, conversational indie-pop\, which led to spots opening for the likes of Alvvays\, Throwing Muses\, and The Beths. Her new album\, Lucky Now\, written and recorded with producer Matthew Simms (Wire\, It Hugs Back)\, reflects the most mature and confident version of Lande Hekt yet. “I’m not as concerned about how I’m presenting myself\,” Hekt says. “I’ve tried to think less about how things are coming across\, and just write songs that make me feel connected to myself and what I value.”\nHekt’s musical touchstones – The Wedding Present\, The Sundays\, The Replacements – remain the same\, but at the same time\, she’s delved deeper into other influences. Lucky Now is indebted to 1980s twee-pop and jangle-pop like The Pastels\, Tallulah Gosh and The Bats\, as well as to more modern iterations of the sound\, such as Autocamper and Jeanines\, in its ecstatic\, soaring melodies and gorgeous\, tactile guitars. The sound is fitting for Hekt’s new lyrical outlook\, where\, though despair and anxiety rear their heads\, she digs deep to find the gratitude. During the album’s recording\, Hekt also moved from Bristol back to her hometown of Exeter. In a lot of ways\, Lucky Now is about return – return to joy\, return to places and parts of the self once left behind. Who you once were can seem unreachable\, but sometimes you can build a bridge. \nhttps://landehekt.bandcamp.com \nTHE POPGUNS are an indie pop band formed in Brighton in 1986\, known for their melodic sound\, chiming guitars\, and the vocals of Wendy Morgan (now Pickles). Often associated with the late 80s/early 90s indie scene\, they achieved success with singles like “Landslide” and quintessential albums ‘Eugenie’ and ‘Snog’ before a hiatus. In 2012\, the band resumed live performances with six gigs. A three-track 7″ single\, “Lovejunky”\, was released in late 2014\, followed by a new album\, ‘Pop Fiction’\, on Matinée Recordings. Soundblab ranked the album at Number 2 on their Top 10 Releases of the year. The band have continued to tour and record new material\, and released the single “So Long” in May 2017\, followed quickly by the album ‘Sugar Kisses’.\nhttps://thepopguns.bandcamp.com/ \nMUMBLE TIDE is a Bristol-based DIY indie-pop duo formed by vocalist/lyricist Gina Leonard and multi-instrumentalist/producer Ryan Rogers. Known for their “scrappy” bedroom-pop sound\, the former couple creates music that blends grunge\, folk\, and electronic elements. Inspired by the free-flowing rhythms of 60’s American folk\, the aim was to find a balance between Roger’s vivid arrangements and Leonard’s evocative lyrics\, one that truly captured the bittersweet depths of their songwriting. The group’s debut album\, ‘Might As Well Play Another One’\, was released last year on Breakfast Records. \nhttps://mumbletide.bandcamp.com/music

SUMMARY:LUNG LEG + UNMARRY ME + THE PLAN - Live Music
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nLUNG LEG\nUNMARRY ME\nTHE PLAN\nSaturday 25 October\nMOTH Club\, Old Trades Hall\, Valette St\, London\, E9 6NU\n7pm-10pm | £10 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/Uf5bde2d3be1 \nLUNG LEG formed in Glasgow in 1994 and were part of the city’s vibrant DIY underground scene. They blended elements of post-punk\, C86\, and riot grrrl\, creating a sound described as indie rock\, pop-punk\, and garage rock.  The original lineup included Jane McKeown (“Jane Egypt”)\, Annie Spandex\, Amanda “Jade Green” Doorbar\, and Maureen “MoMo” Quinn. They released two EPs in the mid-1990s: ‘The Negative Delinquent Autopsy’ and ‘Shagg the Tiger’. The band’s debut album\, “Maid to Minx\,” was released in 1997. Lung Leg’s songs are soaked in hedonistic tales of Glasgow nights out\, living life on the central Scottish edge between the dole and the pub\, the music pumped full of adrenaline. Seriously\, if you tune your mind into just the guitars\, you’ll be doing mental somersaults. But you’d also be missing the vocal interplay\, call-and-response work\,and  lyrics that read like surrealist\, grimy narratives. At the turn of the century\, Lung Leg imploded\, scattering its component members to different parts of the country or to other groups\, after a reissue of the singular ‘Maid To Minx’ album in 2022\, the band reformed with new members Paul Thompson\, Simone Antigone and Hando Morice\, playing a reunion gig in Glasgow that December. They have since featured in the documentary ‘Since Yesterday: The Untold Story’. Lung Leg will be releasing their first new record in October. A limited edition split 7″ with Unmarry Me! is also coming out soon on Second City Static.\nhttps://lungleg.bandcamp.com \nUNMARRY ME! is a triangular-shaped group\, comprising Lise Frances\, Jon Slade and Chris Rowley. London to Brighton and back again. Unmarry Me! is a group that has been together for about 6 months in a world at war and in trouble. Unmarry me! are therefore a group trying to carve out some joy and light as a form of resistance\, no small feat\, and maybe grandiose but worth stating. Unmarry me! It is comprised of personnel who have all had time or continue to have time in other groups that did not take easy routes or money and didn’t make many friends\, so it goes. These groups respectively or chronologically were and are Huggy Bear\, Comet Gain\, I’m Being Good\, Help She Can’t Swim\, Snoozers and Adulkt Life. Bands that time will record as being on the right sides of history and her story. Unmarry Me! are of a completely different stripe or ilk but comprise the antagonist and peculiar DNA that honour this. Unmarry Me! play and record and create and make do in a DIY syncretism that’s useful to themselves\, distinct and not worth talking about. Unmarry Me! is about bending\, queering\, breaking and resetting rules\, smudging boundaries and in the main having a lot of excellent fun!! \nTHE PLAN breeze in from Southend\, keeping the flame burning for the kind of askew provincial pop captured on all those Messthetics compilations. Featuring folks formerly of Wetdog\, The Ghosts and Vic Godard & The Subway Sect\, the group plays a combination of clattering beats\, clanging guitars and conversational tunes. Their songs often move in unexpected directions and are pinned together by Rebecca Gillieron’s sometimes defiant/sometimes soft vocal melodies. New album\, ‘Mountain View’\, to be released on Divine Schism in September.\nhttps://theplan1.bandcamp.com/ \nParty Bands London

SUMMARY:Wasted Youth MOTH Club
DESCRIPTION:Wasted Youth play music that is “energetic\, psychedelic\, prone to semi-improvised and chaotic detours…combined with a selection of melodic and memorable tunes” (Billboard\, 2024). “The original Wasted Youth\, were probably one of the best bands to come out of post punk East London” (Louder Than War\, 2022). \nThey were hugely popular as the Eighties dawned with punks looking for something more sexy and sophisticated and looked set to become much more than the cult band they became. They pre-dated Post Punk and Goth and are still remembered as quietly-influential and a superb live band by fans. Their 1981 album ‘Wild and Wandering’ is widely considered to be an overlooked classic which has sold in excess of 25\,000 copies in its lifetime. \nWasted Youth return to The Moth Club having played a sell-out show there in June 2024. They will be promoting their new album ‘Neo Noir”.\nSpecially invited support act for the evening is Jamie Perrett\, a good friend and amazing singer/musician/performer\, who you really need to see! The DJ for the night is the wonderful Jeffrey Munday\, who will be playing a selection of toe-tapping favourites and some obscure gems. \nThis is Wasted Youth’s only London appearance this year so make sure you get your fix at The Moth Club on Thursday\, July 24. This promises to be a night to remember\, so don’t miss it!

SUMMARY:THE SMASHING TIMES + SPECIAL GUESTS (TBA)
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nTHE SMASHING TIMES\nSPECIAL GUESTS (TBA)\nThursday 5 December\nMOTH Club\, Old Trades Hall\, Valette St\, London\, E9 6NU\n7.30pm | £10 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/va3aba677211 \nTHE SMASHING TIMES are a psychedelic twee freakbeat group from a Baltimore basement. Instruments played by humans\, bare feet touching the ground. Wrinkled button-downs\, sweaters filled with holes\, music audibly and sometimes visibly made by humans. Can you change the strings on your guitar? Maybe\, can you buy me dinner? Lock up your Rickenbackers; Thee Jasmine Monk is coming to town; can they stay on your couch? The recent album ‘Bloom’ was released by Meritorio Records\, featuring fractious\, chiming riffs and Dan Treacy meets Stephen Pastel style vocals and an impressive collection of genuinely memorable tracks. The Smashing Times’ new album ‘Mrs Ladyships and the Cleanerhouse Boys’ will be coming out on K Records in November. \nThe Smashing Times are your new favourite MOD heartthrobs. Is there a new Merseybeat Revolution? How many times can you watch The Blow-Up alone in your room? Why don’t you venture out the front door and take a bite of the real thing? The Smashing Times are a mainstay in the indie pop underground. The group mistrals the new modern life perfectly\, the sharper world. \nhttps://thesmashingtimes.bandcamp.com \n

SUMMARY:PARSNIP + GRAZIA + SASSYHIYA
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nPARSNIP\nGRAZIA\nSASSYHIYA\nTuesday 1 October\nMOTH Club\, Old Trades Hall\, Valette St\, London\, E9 6NU\n7.30pm | £11 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/Rc2d78d6f59c \nPARSNIP are a fantastic Australian group. Their sophomore album ‘Behold’ (out now on Upset The Rhythm)\, is a testament to Parsnip at their most creative\, catchy and collaborative. ‘Behold’ showcases the multi-talents of all four members\, with spirited performances adding sparkle to the thirteen tracks. Paris Richens lets the bass playfully roam. Carolyn Hawkins tumbles\, feeling into the drum rumble. Stella Rennex’s guitar soars alongside her saxophone work whilst Rebecca Liston tenderly attends to an animated keyboard. Everyone sings amidst this lush canopy. \nOn ‘Behold’\, Parsnip explores consciousness’s inner and outer realms with quick wits and some seriously quality jangle and jolt. ‘The Light’ is a whip-smart workout\, sprouting naturally from the propulsive nature of their debut album ‘When the Tree Bears Fruit’ (Trouble In Mind\, 2019). Drawing comparisons with Dolly Mixture\, Sara Goes Pop and Look Blue Go Purple\, Parsnip is an animated ensemble full of life\, emotional complexity and humour. The laughter in the dark is real\, but then the sun rises\, and we must meet the day. Even the flowers turn their faces. Behold!\nhttps://parsniphq.bandcamp.com/album/behold\nGRAZIA just released their debut EP\, “In Poor Taste\,” (Feel It Records)\, written and recorded by Heather Dunlop and Lindsay Corstorphine. Often referential\, In Poor Taste pulls inspiration from the high and low brow\, but mostly the low. Grazia pays homage to everything from The Fall to cheap lingerie brands in a campy pastiche of 80s new wave and pop. In Poor Taste is about having fun while delving into your worst\, core self.\nhttps://grazia.bandcamp.com \nSASSYHIYA are Katherine Wright and Helen Skinner of cult South London queer band Barry. Now\, with added Neil and Pablo. Check out their new 7” on Skep Wax\, a celebratory ode to Kristen Stewart.\nhttps://sassyhiya.bandcamp.com

SUMMARY:MARCEL WAVE - ‘Something Looming’ album launch! + THE PHEROMOANS
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nMARCEL WAVE – ‘Something Looming’ album launch!\nTHE PHEROMOANS\nFriday 14 June\nMOTH Club\, Old Trades Hall\, Valette St\, London\, E9 6NU\n7pm-10.30pm | £10 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/t6d6b5967c40 \nMARCEL WAVE write eulogies for tragic actresses\, ancient riverbeds and concrete obscenity. Their inaugural sonic instalment ‘Something Looming’ (out June 14th on Upset The Rhythm) is part trades club symphony\, part itchy serenade\, and part wistful lament. As their heady concoction of ‘Meades meets Pat-E-Smith meets Kirklees Borough Council’ gets prepped to be formally baptised on a dank stage near you\, Upset the Rhythm and Feel It Records have dutifully stepped in to deliver its songbook to the masses on both sides of the pond.\nFormed when Lindsay Corstorphine and Christopher Murphy of Sauna Youth and brethren Oliver and Patrick Fisher of Cold Pumas were summoned by northern ink-slinger Maike Hale-Jones\, Marcel Wave’s debut offering is a walk through a smoke-filled pub with yellowing wallpaper and all eyes on you. It’s a chronicle of the death of the docklands\, the decline of industry\, of the high street\, of civic pride\, of civilisations\, of hopes and dreams. As Hale-Jones delivers the bad news in her low\, West Yorkshire brogue\, Corstorphine adds the bells and whistles via the frantic pulsations of a wheezing Hohner organ in tandem with Fisher O’s rasping guitar. Marcel Wave are completed by the throbbing basslines of Murphy and Fisher P’s fervent rhythms. Join Marcel Wave as they dance to society’s decline with a lukewarm pint in both hands at this album launch!\nhttps://marcel-wave.bandcamp.com \nTHE PHEROMOANS are tenants of an unruly domain. Over the last 18 years the group have evolved from garage rock primitivists to auteurs of their own curious sound; a frothy brew of loose electronics\, refractory rock and humdrum musing. Their songs are mutable\, capricious\, unreliable narrations\, often withholding as much as they reveal. Russell Walker’s understated vocal has always been the band’s unifying focus\, it is wry\, unsparing and wilfully honest. Walker’s lyrics are an observational tour de force\, sometimes droll\, yet often tipping over into unlikely pathos. With previous releases on Upset The Rhythm\, Convulsive and Alter\, 2024 will witness The Pheromoans return with lucky album number 13\, entitled ‘Wyrd Psearch’ (out now 1st on Upset The Rhythm). With The Pheromoans there is always a familiarity at play\, only broken and reassembled\, like a bygone sitcom gone rogue in your memory. This contributes to the group’s peculiarly British outsider perspective\, one that shouts from the sidelines\, but never goes unnoticed.\nhttps://upsettherhythm.bandcamp.com/album/wyrd-psearch

SUMMARY:LOOPSEL + JJULIUS + CATE KENNAN
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \n\n\n\nLOOPSELJJULIUSCATE KENNANFriday 27 OctoberMOTH Club\, Old Trades Hall\, Valette St\, London\, E9 6NU7.30pm-10pm | £10 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/zc893d7209b7 \n\n\n\nLOOPSEL conjures music like foggily remembered dreams. The songs on her new album  Öga for Öga are like paths in the forest forest\, are heavily\, almost treacherously\, reverberated\, with finger-plucked guitars acting as your signposts amongst the flora and fauna of field recordings\, pads\, and the cool\, calm voice of Elin Engström. The album is the second from Engström as Loopsel. She is a Gothenburg-based musician and one-half of the group Monokultur and the team behind the tiny Mamma’s Mystersika Jukebox label. During what seemed like the nadir of the pandemic\, the blurry\, otherworldly sounds emanating from their living room snaked into the DFA office\, where the otherwise dutifully DIY pair found the scale of worldwide release and distribution.https://loopsel.bandcamp.com/ \n\n\n\nJJULIUS is the name of the swirling\, singular world built by Julius Pierstorff\, somewhere deep in the cobwebs of Gothenburg\, Sweden\, where dub and kosmische and post-punk sounds all sit around and tell ghost stories to each other. Originally a fully DIY project on Mamma’s Mysteriska Jukebox\, the label he runs with his partner Loopsel\, his latest long player\, VOL. 2 was released worldwide with New York’s seminal DFA Records. Now\, he emerges from the shadows to play some shows; it’ll be louder and looser\, as it should be.https://mammasmysteriskajukebox.bandcamp.com/album/jjulius-vol-2 \n\n\n\nCATE KENNAN is a composer and recording artist from Los Angeles who writes melodic music on synthesizers and other instruments. Her debut album\, The Arbitrary Dimension of Dreams\, was released by Post Present Medium in 2022.https://catekennan.bandcamp.com

SUMMARY:KATE STABLES + GINA BIRCH + BAS JAN + ROZI PLAIN (DJ set)
DESCRIPTION:KATE STABLES has been making music since the 00s with her band This Is The Kit\, which all started when she moved to Bristol and started playing and collaborating with local musicians. This Is The Kit have created a name for themselves with songs that untangle emotional knots and weave remarkable stories. Now four albums in\, and based in Paris\, the story of This Is The Kit is itself one of time and change and listeners. It has carried Kate Stables from Winchester to Bristol to Paris\, across tours and festivals and the admiration of critics and her peers. Among these are Sharon Van Etten\, The National (Aaron Dessner appears multiple times on Moonshine Freeze)\, Chris Thile (of Nickel Creek\, Punch Brothers\, and now the host of A Prairie Home Companion)\, as well as Guy Garvey and much of BBC 6Music. \n\n\n\n\nhttps://thisisthekit.co.uk/\n\n\n\n\nGINA BIRCH released her first-ever solo single last year on Third Man Records called ‘Feminist Song’. Gina Birch is a founding member of Dorothy\, The Hangovers and The Raincoats. Gina was also a member of Red Crayola when Mayo Thompson asked her to contribute to their ‘Kangaroo’ album. ‘Feminist Song’ made its way into recent Raincoats gigs and Gina’s longtime collaborator and fellow Raincoat Ana da Silva contributes monotron on this recording. Gina performs solo using film and video projections with a sound that she augments live with guitar and vocals.http://www.ginabirch.net/theginabirchexperience/front_page.html \n\n\n\nBAS JAN are a London-based ensemble\, this year they returned with an expanded line-up and a much-anticipated second album ‘Baby U Know’ (Lost Map). It is the follow-up to the critically acclaimed 2018 debut album Yes I Jan\, which was hailed for its “messy majesty” (Uncut) and “beautifully fractured art-pop” (Mojo). Bas Jan were co-founded in 2015 by songwriter\, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Serafina Steer. The band features Emma Smith (Jarv Is\, Meilyr Jones\, Seamus Fogarty and founder member of the Elysian Quartet) on violin\, bass and electronics\, Rachel Horwood (Trash Kit\, Bamboo\, Jenny Moore’s Mystic Business) on drums and Charlie Stock on electric violin.https://basjan.bandcamp.com/

SUMMARY:THE MONOCHROME SET + THE MINDREADERS + DEE BYRNE & CATH ROBERTS
DESCRIPTION:THE MONOCHROME SET are a highly influential English new wave band\, originally formed in London in 1978 by Bid (vocals & guitar)\, Lester Square (lead guitar)\, and J D Haney (from The Art Attacks\, on drums).  In 1979\, they signed to Rough Trade and released three singles\, “He’s Frank”\, “Eine Symphonie Des Grauens”\, and “The Monochrome Set”. They released their debut studio album\, “Strange Boutique”\, produced by Bob Sargeant in 1980. Their classic follow-up album\, “Love Zombies”\, was produced by Alvin Clark and the band\, later that same year.  In 2018\, the 40th year since the band formed\, their 14th studio album\, “Maisieworld” and a box set\, “The Monochrome Set 1979–1985: Complete Recordings”\, was released. The group’s most recent album ‘Allhallowtide’ was released earlier this year.http://www.themonochromeset.co.uk/ \n\n\n\nTHE MINDREADERS are Richard Ipaint on vocals and drums\, Sexton Ming on vocals\, sfx and guitar\, and Russ Wilkins on vocals and guitar\, with all three on songwriting duty too. Fans of The Pop Rivets\, The Milkshakes\, The Natural Born Lovers\, Rocking Richard\, The Delmonas\, Auntie Vegetable\, The Wildebeests and more will know all about them. Debut album ‘Ban The Mindreader’ was released in 1987 on Russ’ Empire Records label\, with some extra gig recordings to bulk it out. Some of the gig recordings also found their way to the Medway Powerhouse compilations on Hangman Records. Fast forward 30 years\, Russ and Richard realised they only lived 25 miles apart in Scotland\, and now much wiser\, a connection was made from Sexton (now also much wiser) who wanted to do something dim and simple. A gig was arranged in Hastings which led on to more gigs! Following on from the gigs\, they convened in a garage and recorded some songs over two days onto a Tascam 8 track\, 1/2” recorder\, playing whatever they felt worked\, recording over twenty tracks. The fruits from this labour were released last year by Spinout Nuggets as the LP ‘Continuation’.https://soundcloud.com/spinoutnuggets/sets/the-mindreaders-continuation \n\n\n\nDEE BYRNE & CATH ROBERTS released their first album on Luminous in 2020. Mixed by Alex Bonney\, Disembark! is a series of short acoustic improvisations recorded at Gun Factory Studios. Disembark! is a series of short\, spontaneous improvisations that explore a dramatic range of textures\, whilst maintaining the sense of an ongoing\, inquisitive conversation. The recording came about after a series of live duo performances; going into the studio seemed like the next logical step.https://luminouslabel.bandcamp.com/album/disembark

SUMMARY:WRECKLESS ERIC + MEATRAFFLE + LILITH AI
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm & Hello Goodbye present… \n\n\n\nHG20 : ‘A fundraiser celebrating 20 years of Hello Goodbye and Resonance FM’ \n\n\n\nWRECKLESS ERICMEATRAFFLELILITH AISaturday 30 JulyMOTH Club\, Old Trades Hall\, Valette St\, London\, E9 6NU7.30pm – 10.30pm | £10 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/N6957a30c1ea \n\n\n\nWRECKLESS ERIC is Eric Goulden. He was given the name to hide behind. After a while he realized he was stuck with it. Onstage he hides behind nothing\, he tells the truth with big open chords\, lilting enchantment\, squalls of feedback\, dissonance\, bizarre stories and backchat. Eric began his recording life on Stiff Records in 1977 with his enduring hit Whole Wide World when he was little more than an ex-teenage art student. Eventually he sidestepped the mechanics of stardom to become Britain’s biggest underground household name\, much loved and often underestimated. His 2015 album ‘amERICa’ reminded those who’ve kept the faith and new generations of fans what he’s all about. He won’t recreate 1978 for you\, he’ll blow your mind instead. \n\n\n\n\nhttps://wrecklesseric.com/\n\n\n\n\nMEATRAFFLE is a common chord running through the leftist brigades of the South London art scene. For Meatraffle it is the political\, the platonic\, the comradeship of the struggle that provides true artistic grist.https://meatraffle1917.bandcamp.com/ \n\n\n\nLILITH AI is a guitarist\, who writes and performs poignant tales of modern life. Hailing from nowhere special\, Lilith began releasing lo-fi bedroom recordings in 2016. Her first EP RIOT is full of underground anthems popular with Riot grrrls word wide. Her second EP Native Tongue chronicles her teen years\, spent living on the streets of Queens New York. 2019 saw the release of 3rd EP Bare Radical with evolving sounds.  Lilith’s artfully delivered songs fit somewhere between indie pop and anti-folk.https://lilithai.bandcamp.com/music

SUMMARY:BUFFET LUNCH + ME LOST ME + SHAKE CHAIN - Live Music
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents: \n\nBUFFET LUNCH\nME LOST ME\nSHAKE CHAIN\n\nFriday\, Apr 1st 2022\nMoth Club\, Old Trades Hall\, Valette St\, London\, E9 6NU\n7.30pm | £7 | https://link.dice.fm/v9oNFWFE7hb\n(Tickets still valid from the postponed Cafe OTO\, Nov 6th 2021 show) \nBUFFET LUNCH is a Scottish group whose mission is to craft satisfyingly imperfect pop songs filled with imagery and humour. The group’s elementary parts are Perry O’Bray (Vocals/Keys/Guitar)\, Neil Robinson (Bass)\, John Muir (Lead Guitar) & Luke Moran (Drums)\, united by a shared love of music on the ABBA-to-Beefheart axis. These four ricochets between Glasgow and Edinburgh create music that bristles with a DIY spirit and upbeat wonkiness. Their tracks are active excursions\, meandering into clatter some terrain as often as hiking up into the breezy\, melodious foothills. The desire to lead the listener along a curious tale helps tie things together\, showcasing a lyrical playfulness that pins down their sound puzzle. Following their excellent ‘The Power of Rocks’ album (Upset The Rhythm)\, the band returns this November with a vigorous new 7″ EP featuring the tracks’ Mild Weather’ and ‘Cheeks’.\nhttps://buffetlunchband.tumblr.com/ \nME LOST ME is the electronic music project of Newcastle based musician Jayne Dent. Described by BBC Radio 6’s Tom Robinson as a “brilliant peculiar noise”\, Me Lost Me delights in experimenting with genre\, taking influence from folk\, electronica\, art pop\, ambient and noise music to create a beguiling mix of soaring vocals\, synth\, field recordings and hypnotic rhythms. Her live shows are atmospheric\, dark and playful\, with a repertoire that explores storytelling through original songs\, improvisations and reworkings of traditional ballads. She recently released her second album\, ‘The Good Noise’\, out November 2020\, which was described as ‘stunning’ and ‘remarkable’ by NARC Magazine\, demonstrating a maturing of her sound and a deepening of her exploration of site and experiments with the genre.\nhttps://www.melostme.com/ \nSHAKE CHAIN is a 4-piece experimental group formed of artist Kate Mahony (Vocals)\, Joe Fergey (Drums)\, Robert Eyres (Guitar/Synth) and Chris Hopkins (Bass/Synth) hailing from Bournemouth\, London and Oxford. Formed through a love of thought-provoking performance art and a yearning for disruption\, they recorded their debut EP ‘Neil Yonge and Bob Dylan Live at Hyde Park’ in 2019 with sound artist David Carugo at Oxford Brookes University released by Permanent Slump. Shake Chain provides a fusion of post-punk grooves\, noise samples\, and chaotic lamenting on the current state.\nhttps://katemahony.com/Shake-Chain
