About this event

Picky New Promotions present M/X is on Sunday 21 February 2027 at The Lab, Northampton, with doors at 19:30. Tickets start at £11, including the booking fee.

Picky New Promotions are excited to welcome Bristol postpunk trio M/X back to Northampton on Sun, Feb 21, 2027! M/X is a young and eclectic three-piece dream punk powerhouse that fuses post punk with grunge and indie gaze. Chaotically charming, their live shows consist of nothing but raw energy and zest. Hailing from Bristol, England, the band’s visceral sound draws comparisons to the likes of IDLES, Yard Act, Talking Heads, Gurriers and Shame. With trashy rhythms, angsty guitars and socially charged lyrics that hit like a punch in the gut, their explosive performances have landed them spots at festivals like 2000 Trees and Dot To Dot, as well as conquering venues in Europe, including SuperSonic, Paris. With relentless drive and a DIY ethos, M/X started the year off strong by making their European live debut in February and they are gearing up for a huge 2026. Their debut EP is a visceral soundtrack to the chaos of modern life, offering a cathartic release in a world that rarely pauses to breathe. Followed by the single release of ‘Momma’ which is a dirty grunge anthem. It's raw, emotional, and honest. Whether on stage or in the studio, M/X promises to keep pushing boundaries...

The Lab · Northampton

Picky New Promotions are proud to bring you a headline show featuring Northampton's own local hero MEGAPHONEY on Fri, Nov 20, at The Lab, Megaphoney is the solo project of Northampton-born singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Peter Marchant, whose uplifting, nostalgic songwriting draws deeply from the classic rock and singer-songwriter records that shaped his musical upbringing. Raised on a soundtrack of 1970s icons alongside his older brother and creative collaborator Matt, Marchant developed a love for timeless melodies, rich arrangements and emotionally resonant storytelling that now sit at the heart of Megaphoney's sound. Following the tragic loss of Matt in 2019, Marchant embarked on a deeply personal journey of artistic growth, reconnecting with the musical roots the brothers shared while forging a voice distinctly his own. Performing almost every instrument on his recordings, Megaphoney's music stands as a testament to the enduring power of inspiration, love and human connection, transforming personal loss into songs filled with warmth, hope and heart.

Aidan Thorne and Jason Ball, David Ian Roberts

The Globe at Hay · Hereford

Aidan Thorne & Jason Ball Invoke nostalgia, and rekindle a memory of a time and/or place. The pieces are engulfed in a fog of guitar ambience and measured 6 string bass textures. Deeply rooted in jazz, the style carefully glides between written and improvised elements. Some of the compositions were realised and refined from recordings of loose jam sessions. One may hear nods to influences from 70’s ECM records such as Terje Rypdall or Bill Frizell. "A fantastic deep dive into lesser-known Welsh folk tunes” Jude Rodgers, The Guardian “An unforgettable musical experience” **** Ian Mann, Jazzmann Blog “a beguiling instrumental set" - Tim Cumming, Songlines David Ian Roberts will be performing a new set of unreleased instrumental electric guitar pieces ahead of recording his new album. Owing as much to Jeff Buckley's solo guitar work as to folk influences Nick Drake or Bert Jansch, Roberts uses the simplicity of just a telecaster and a reverb pedal to intimate but dazzling effect. "A quiet masterpiece” Mark Radcliffe BBC Radio 2 "A performance of astounding artistry - guitar patterns that match even the legacies of a Nick Drake or Sufjan Stevens" RnR "Quietly Exceptional" U...
