SUMMARY:ME LOST ME - ‘This Material Moment’ album launch! + THE SILVER FIELD
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nME LOST ME – ‘This Material Moment’ album launch!\nTHE SILVER FIELD\nWednesday 6 August\nSt Pancras Old Church\, Pancras Road\, King’s Cross\, London\, NW1 1UL\n7.30pm | £10 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/i7853be3d99b \nME LOST ME delights in experimenting with songwriting and storytelling\, creating a beguiling mix of soaring vocals and atmospheric electronics that playfully weave together disparate genres\, drawing influence from folk\, art pop\, noise\, ambient and improvised music. In 2023 Me Lost Me released the critically regarded album ‘RPG’ and toured extensively in support of the release. On Me Lost Me’s fourth full-length\, This Material Moment – arriving on Upset the Rhythm on 27th June – she has created an “emotionally raw” album\, her most honest and vulnerable yet. Me Lost Me presents sound reaching in opposite directions\, straddling time towards the archaic and timeless traditions of folktales\, and towards the possible and potential futures of pastoral Britain and the world at large. \nConcerned with physicality\, interpretations\, and\, yes\, materiality\, ‘This Material Moment’ is an album akin to rummaging through a box of long-forgotten trinkets. With each song\, Me Lost Me extracts something from the box and asks us to consider it from every angle. “This is an album which uses words as a material\, a playful tool for experimentation\, full of metaphor\, abstraction and analogies.” Jayne says\, “it has softness and anger\, humour\, hope and despair\, intensity of feeling in all directions expressed as textures\, objects\, places.” \n‘This Material Moment’ was written and arranged solo\, but played with a core band of John Pope on electric/double bass\, Faye MacCalman on clarinet\, and now with the addition of Ewan Mackenzie (Dextro/Pigs x7) on drums – bringing in live drums and electric bass for the first time. The album was recorded by Sam Grant at Blank Studios in Newcastle\, who also worked on RPG.\nhttps://www.melostme.com/ \nTHE SILVER FIELD is an Oram award-winning project built from the sound world of Coral Rose Kindred-Boothby. Voice\, tapes\, bass\, samples\, synthesis\, strings\, reeds\, drums\, small sounds\, big sounds\, sunlight\, moonlight\, a lot of water. Using her modular synthesiser and other self-built electronic instruments\, Coral weaves together song-soundscapes\, creating a rich and dream-like tapestry of sound that draws from folk music tradition\, experimental electronics and psychedelia.\nhttps://thesilverfield.co.uk/ \n

SUMMARY:QUINIE - 'Forefowk\, Mind Me' album launch + SOUND OF YELL + HARRY GORSKI BROWN
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nQUINIE – ‘Forefowk\, Mind Me’ album launch\nSOUND OF YELL\nHARRY GORSKI BROWN\nFriday 30 May\nSt Pancras Old Church\, Pancras Road\, King’s Cross\, NW1 1UL\n7.30pm | £10 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/hf599383b2db \nQUINIE will release her her third album ‘Forefowk\, Mind Me’ with Upset The Rhythm on May 24th 2025. This show is the album launch. The record is largely sung in Scots language\, one of Scotland’s three official languages along with Gaelic and English. “Scots gives me a way of expressing myself which is connected directly with the landscapes I love. It brings the songs alive and it is a fascinating language. The name of the record is in Scots – Forefowk means the people who came before\, or ancestors. When we say ‘mind me\,’ we can mean a few things- remind\, remember\, watch over or care for me. The record explores how tradition needs to be constantly reconnected with\, built upon\, looked after\, and shared.” \nQuinie sings with a style inspired by Scottish Traveller singers. “I began singing unaccompanied Scots Song in 2015 after hearing Scots Traveller singer Sheila Stewart on the radio. Over the years I have met Traveller friends who taught me that settled people sharing these songs could contribute to raising awareness. Scottish Travellers are marginalised and discriminated against in modern Scotland\, despite being custodians of so many of our important traditions. So I started to perform them and tell this story. From there I built on my repertoire and started writing my own songs”. \nTo develop this record\, Quinie travelled across Argyll with her Horse. They went on a pilgrimage of sorts through the ancient landscapes of the West of Scotland to explore the interconnected relationships between people\, ancestors\, animals\, and place. The album’s vinyl release is accompanied by a book and film\, documenting this unusual research process.  ‘Forefowk\, Mind Me’ was recorded in August 2024 at The Big Shed in Highland Perthshire with support from Creative Scotland. Quinie is accompanied by an ensemble of musicians: Ailbhe Nic Oireachtaigh (viola)\, Oliver Pitt (duduk\, bouzouki\, percussion)\, Harry Górski-Brown (small pipes\, violin)\, and Stevie Jones (double bass\, recording\, and mixing). Each of these artists brings their own distinctive voice\, bridging contemporary experimental practice with worlds of traditional and early music. \nhttps://www.quinie.co.uk/ \nSOUND OF YELL is the solo project of Glasgow based musician\, sound designer and producer\, Stevie Jones. At times fronting an all acoustic collective of exploratory string and woodwind arrangements\, in this instance Stevie will play solo fingerstyle steel string guitar\, accompanied by tapes and synth. A serial collaborator\, Stevie also plays with the New String Collective\, Alasdair Roberts and Arab Strap (and of course\, Quinie) and co-directs radio-art festival Radiophrenia. \nhome \n \nHARRY GORSKI BROWN is a Glasgow-based multi-instrumentalist known for his innovative blend of electroacoustic and small pipes. In 2024\, he released a tape with Glasgow label GLARC\, Durt Dronemaker After Dreamboats\, featuring settings of traditional Gàidhlig songs for voice\, small pipes\, and electronics. \nhttps://www.harrygorskibrown.com \n

SUMMARY:ERIC CHENAUX + jude mccreath
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nERIC CHENAUX\nJude McCrea\nFriday 28 June\nSt Pancras Old Church\, Pancras Road\, King’s Cross\, NW1 1UL\n7.30pm | £12 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/Pbad9db9e326 \nERIC CHENAUX is a Canadian guitarist\, songwriter\, singer and sound sculptor. He has released seven solo albums of experimental songs on the Montréal-based imprint Constellation\, charting an adventurous and uncompromising path through avant-folk\, out-jazz and pop composition\, increasingly rooted in a unique and elemental juxtaposition of fried\, frazzled\, semi-improvised guitar and smooth\, clear tenor balladry. He has been called “a musician like no other” by Tiny Mix Tapes; his solo albums were praised by The Quietus as “stunningly beautiful\, genuinely inimitable\, whose reputation will only grow with time.” Gracing the cover of The Wire magazine in 2017\, the feature article declared: “Chenaux succeeds in generating an astonishing array of timbres. A singer and songwriter possessed of angelic sweetness and clarity\, accompanying himself with largely improvised\, visceral guitar textures that seem intent on undermining and obscuring his songs. The need to communicate tussling with the urge to obfuscate; lucidity versus opacity; form against chaos.” \nChenaux’s first album as a singer-songwriter was ‘Dull Lights’\, released on Constellation in 2006\, and an acclaimed\, highly original solo discography has unfolded since then: ‘Sloppy Ground’ (2008); ‘Warm Weather With Ryan Driver’ (2010); ‘Guitar & Voice’ (2012); ‘Skullsplitter’ (2015); ‘Slowly Paradise’ (2018) and ‘Say Laura’ (2022). He has been featured on various collaborative records issued by other labels through this same span\, including Okraïna\, Avatar\, Grapefruit and Three: four. He has performed and recorded with countless artists\, including Ryan Driver\, Sandro Perri\, Pauline Oliveros\, Michael Snow\, Han Bennink\, and Josephine Foster. Chenaux’s forthcoming album ‘Delights Of My Life’ features Eric with a three-piece band and will be released in May on Constellation. This new record conveys warm familiarity\, shot through with the exuberantly experimental subversion and playful\, even mischievous\, iconoclasm that continues to mark Chenaux as defiantly\, virtuosically\, and genially one-of-kind.\nhttps://ericchenaux.bandcamp.com/ \nJude McCreath is an alt-folk singer-songwriter born in Hertfordshire and currently residing in London. A former popular indie-rock group Second Thoughts member\, his musical influences include Elliot Smith\, Nick Drake\, Plas Teg\, and Eric’s Trip. Recent recordings were made with Yuri Shibuichi from Honeyglaze Producing. Jude sometimes performs live with cello and drum accompaniment.

SUMMARY:MOHAMMAD SYFKHAN + GOBLIN BAND
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents…\nMOHAMMAD SYFKHAN\nGOBLIN BAND\nThursday 23 May\nSt Pancras Old Church\, Pancras Road\, King’s Cross\, NW1 1UL\n7.30pm | £12 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/y06425199b5b\nMOHAMMAD SYFKHAN is an Irish based Kurdish/Syrian singer and Bouzouki player. Mohammad’s own brand of ecstatic music takes elements from Middle Eastern and North African music to create an atmosphere of joy\, love and happiness. Since arriving in Ireland\, Mohammad has used the language of music to integrate into the local community by playing at private parties and concerts. He has been playing music since the 1980’s\, while living in the city of Raqqa\, Syria  where he began working as a professional singer and started his own band\, The Al-Rabie Band which played concerts\, parties\, weddings and festivals all over Syria. His debut album ‘I Am Kurdish’ came out on Nyahh Records in February.\nhttps://nyahhrecords.bandcamp.com/album/mohammad-syfkhan-i-am-kurdish \n“Syfkhan takes his domestic influences and fuses them with music from beyond those regions\, from North African folk rhythms to Turkish psychedelia. It’s a glorious alembic not bound by borders\, where Mohammad himself brings a cultivated exuberance to his playing that belies his vintage.” The Quietus \n“I Am Kurdish includes luscious covers of 1970s Turkish hit Leylim Ley\, Baligh Hamdim’s A Thousand and One Nights and Kurdish songwriter Mihemed Elî Şakir’s gorgeous Put a Coffee in a Glass. The title track\, an original with Syfkhan’s deep\, husky voice in full flow\, is also a highlight.” The Guardian \nGOBLIN BAND\, formed organically from intimate sessions of the same name\, ran out of the Hobgoblin Music\, a folk music instrument shop in Central London\, and was organised by a group of queer folk obsessive friends and shop employees. These sessions have given rise to a six-piece band which\, though firmly rooted in the traditional music of the British Isles\, draws widely on medieval and early music\, as well as the folk musical traditions from abroad. The sound concocted employs all manner of strings\, squeezeboxes\, hurdy-gurdy\, flutes\, horns\, bells and whistles. The Goblins interpret folk songs in relation to the political upheavals of past and present and strive to make a space for new audiences to experience traditional music in a manner which is both riotously joyful and deeply sincere.\nhttps://linktr.ee/goblin.band

SUMMARY:ALISON COTTON + STEREOCILIA
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \n\n\n\nALISON COTTON\nSTEREOCILIA\nFriday 5 April\nSt Pancras Old Church\, Pancras Road\, King’s Cross\, NW1 1UL\n7.30pm | £13 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/Hc9626d08025 \n\n\n\nALISON COTTON is a viola player based in London working in composition and improvisation. Her debut album ’All Is Quiet at the Ancient Theatre’ was released in 2018 firstly on cassette on Bloxham Tapes\, followed by a vinyl release on Cardinal Fuzz (UK) and Feeding Tube (USA). In July 2019 her longform piece\, ‘Behind the Spiderweb Gates’ was released on the Australian label\, Longform Editions. As well as the viola\, she uses an array of other instruments (her voice\, harmonium\, percussion\, recorder\, omnichord\, shruti box and piano) to create long\, haunting folk drones. Cotton’s recent album ‘The Portrait You Painted of Me’\, is a 6-track record – her first for Rocket Recordings. This will be followed up in March with ‘Engelchen’\, an album reflecting on the intrepid Cook sisters whose efforts helped refugees escape Nazi-occupied Europe in the 1930s. It’s a celebration of the human spirit\, one that reflects a universality in its narrative which transcends the boundaries of history and impacts very urgently on our daily lives. Whatever attempts may be made to tell this story\, it’s hard to imagine one that resonates deeper than ‘Engelchen’.\nhttps://alisoncotton-uk.bandcamp.com \n\n\n\nSTEREOCILIA is Bristol\, UK based guitarist and composer\, John Scott. John uses his guitar\, analog synths and live looping techniques to create dense\, rich layers of sound. Over the past 10 years John has performed all over the UK and Europe. in the past he has shared a stage with acts including Ben Frost\, William Baskinski\, Gnod\, Nadja\, Daniel Lanois\, Noveller\, White Hills\, Acid Mothers Temple\, Josef Van Wissem\, Mick Turner (The Dirty Three) and performed in three of Rhys Chatham’s guitar Orchestras. He has also presented work for live radio broadcasts and regularly composes for Short Film\, including the Channel 4 award winning documentary\, ‘The Boy With The 8-Hour Heart.’ Stereocilia has released several albums and EP’s on UK independent labels\, Drone Rock Records\, Low Point\, Champion Version\, Weird Beard\, and his own imprint\, Echoic Memory. His 5th album “Crystalline” released in April 2023 was his third release for Brighton based label\, Drone Rock Records.\nhttps://stereocilia.bandcamp.com/music

SUMMARY:SHANNON LAY  + NAIMA BOCK
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nSHANNON LAY\nNAIMA BOCK\nMonday 15 November\nSt Pancras Old Church\, Pancras Road\, King’s Cross\, NW1 1UL\n7.30pm | £12.50 | Tickets:  https://link.dice.fm/LWiCXICpNib   \nSHANNON LAY is a L.A. singer-songwriter whose work is of a plainspoken mysticism that goes to the small\, bright truth of things\, showcasing her unusual songwriting and quietly commanding voice. Shannon has been dominating the local scene in Los Angeles over the past few years\, leaving everyone who witnesses completely breathless.  \nShannon’s new album\, ‘Geist’\, is tender intensity\, placeless and ethereal. It exists in the chasms of the present – a world populated by shadow selves\, spiritual awakenings\, déjà vu\, and past lives. “Something sleeps inside us\,” Lay insists on the opening track\, and that’s the guiding philosophy throughout. A winding\, golden\, delicate thread of intuition that explores the unknown\, the possibility.  \nLay tracked vocals and guitar at Jarvis Tavinere of Woods’s studio\, then sent the songs out to multi-instrumentalists Ben Boye (Bonnie Prince Billy\, Ty Segall) in Los Angeles and Devin Hoff (Sharon Van Etten\, Cibo Matto) in New York; trusting their musical instincts and intuition. She then sent those recordings to Sofia Arreguin (Wand) and Aaron Otheim (Heatwarmer\, Mega Bog) for additional keys\, while Ty Segall contributed a guitar solo on “Shores.”  \nAs a whole\, ‘Geist’ is both esoteric and accessible. There’s the concise\, pared-back cover of Syd Barrett’s tilt-a-whirl-esque ‘Late Night’\, while ‘Rare to Wake’\, inspired by Dune\, is existential and meditative\, a circular guitar riff looping at the core of it.  ‘Awaken and Allow’\, is ancient-feeling and mainly a cappella\, its melody channels her deep Irish roots\, a moment of reflection\, before a drop happens – its intensity mirroring the anticipation and anxiety that come with taking the first step to accepting change. ‘Geist’ is released on October 8th through Sub Pop.

NAIMA BOCK co-founded Goat Girl with friends at age 15\, and after releasing their debut album on Rough Trade Records she left the band to explore other musical avenues. Her music now combines folk influenced songwriting with jazzy instrumentation\, partially inspired by Naima’s childhood growing up in Brazil.
