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.

SE x EC1

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...

Hil St Soul

Boisdale of Canary Wharf · London

“A beguiling set of pipes - a whiff of Whitney here, a scoop of Chaka there”The Boston Globe Hil St Soul comes to Boisdale with original British soul, neo-soul warmth and a catalogue that has travelled well beyond the UK circuit. Led by Zambia-born, London-raised singer-songwriter Hilary Mwelwa, this is soul with roots in Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye, but shaped by London R&B, jazz-soul and the smooth US soul sound that embraced her early. Her debut album Soul Organic marked her out as one of the strongest UK soul voices of her generation, earning Best Newcomer recognition from Blues & Soul. She went on to appear on Later... with Jools Holland, share stages with James Brown, D’Angelo and Macy Gray, and find US radio success with her version of "For the Love of You". The live set draws from a catalogue that includes "Until You Come Back to Me", "For the Love of You", "Pieces", "Strictly a Vibe Thing" and newer material from Back in Love and Nasalifya (Thank You). Expect warm keys, a rhythm section that sits in the pocket, close backing vocals and Hilary’s lead vocal right where it should be: relaxed, soulful and never overworked.
