Swell

Betsey Trotwood · London

Swell return to London for their first show here in over 16 years. It is safe to say no band sounds quite like Swell and two of the original members, Sean Kirkpatrick and John Dettman Lytle are hitting the road with two newer members Philippe Gunst and Tim Adams to tie in with the reissue of the band's mesmerizing second album ...Well? which was originally released on Beggars Banquet and Virgin records throughout Europe where they toured often including headline slots at Dingwalls and European festivals. Following the passing of David Freel Swell did a very successful European tour that found out a lot of fans still cared with Johan and Phillip from post punk band Fragment finishing off the line up. This will be the smallest London show the band has ever played.

Betsey Trotwood · London

Welcome one and all to the glorious sound of the Thames Delta, coming at you live and direct from Southend-on-Sea - albeit in the middle of London. First up, garage indie rockers Invaders give forth a sound that is made from 4 cups of estuary mud, a large measurement of swagger and a heavy helping of groove. After a nerve-calming pint or three, you’ll be ready for Permanent Firmament to take the stage - Southend alumni playing songs by the Cusack/Son Of Buff/Adjustment songwriter Lance Baldock, with a sound that sips from the early Fannies, sludgy Neil Young cup with a dollop of indie-powerpop and shades of early Wilco. You’re probably on the spirits by now but Dark Globes bring their melodically driven noise-pop, lo-fi garage rock, and folk-pop infused with gentle psychedelic rock and ringing guitars. Finally - if you are still with us - The Bromides are a London-based (but big in Southend!) alternative noise-pop and garage rock band fronted by singer, guitarist, and Scratchy Records founder Simon Berridge, who also performs as Simon Bromide.

Sairie + Roger Kunkel & Stoo Odom + Simon Breed

Betsey Trotwood · London

Clerkenville East-West presents an evening of entrancing and extraordinary music. We have the London launch of the debut album by Brighton-based ethereal folk trio Sairie, from the US - Roger Kunkel + Stoo Odom - formerly of mighty acid/ Paisley/ desert rockers Thin White Rope, and gripping London singer-songwriter Simon Breed. After releasing a series of captivating singles and EPs since 2020, SAIRIE launch their first full-length album, ‘Beneath the Spreading Tree’. It continues the trio's exploration of early 70’s folk influences, blending otherworldly atmospherics with stripped-back arrangements. In a four star review, The Guardian heralded its "glistening psych-folk...Singer Emma Morton brings an indie-girl chorister’s brightness to this captivating debut album, on songs with hints of darkness that sound ages-old". While KLOF Magazine wrote: "Sairie’s long-awaited debut sounds like a lo-fi Pentangle with an added layer of hauntological strangeness...This ageless-sounding debut is stark in its beauty and richly rewarding." https://sairie.bandcamp.com/ "80% improvised guitar and bass duo" ROGER KUNKEL & STOO ODOM were members of much lauded Californian rock band Thin W...

DJ Nights: Mi-Soul Radio Fridays

Boisdale of Canary Wharf · London

Dinner & Table Reservations from 5pm. DJs from 7pm-2am Boisdale has Jools Holland as Patron of Music, a live programme that runs seven nights a week and a NEXO sound system installed because the music demands it. Mi-Soul Radio has Gordon Mac MBE, Kiss FM in its DNA and thirty years of soul, house and R&B running through everything it does. On Friday nights the two come together on the first floor and the result is exactly what you would hope for. The selectors rotate through the Mi-Soul roster each week, which keeps the sets fresh without ever dropping the standard. Deep soulful house one Friday, classic R&B the next, but always played by someone who has a genuine relationship with the music rather than a playlist and a laptop. Start on the heated terrace with a cocktail overlooking Cabot Square, move inside when the night builds and let the sound system do the rest. First Floor Bar & Heated Garden Terrace Nestled in Cabot Square and overlooking the fountain with the Canary Wharf skyline beyond, the first floor bar and heated garden terrace is a destination in its own right. Fine wines, premium spirits and expertly crafted cocktails, with a selection that covers everything from rar...
