MILKWEED:
"The duo describe their sound as ‘Slacker Trad’ which is both true and somehow insufficient. On the face of it their musical concerns are transatlantic – they follow the rich creative line that runs between British traditional music and the songs and tunes of the eastern United States. In reality their scope is global, and rooted in deep time, with influences from prehistory bleeding into a troubled and troubling modern era. As a result their music doesn’t sit easily anywhere, but ricochets between bewitching Appalachian folk music and disconcerting hauntological."
“sounds, quite simply, like nothing else in the world…one of the most invigorating and interesting releases of recent years…Masterpiece” KLOF mag.

LUCY VALENTINE:
Experimental guitarist and noise artist from the North East of England working with celestial tones and hellish drones.
Recent album 'Vault of Heaven', is a multimedia project focusing entirely on the historic soundbanks of the Mellotron, creating unearthly soundscapes and pushing them back into the celestial spheres.
Exploring all of its unearthly frequencies recorded on to tape, the work focuses on moving the once medieval idea of the representation of the celestial realm into the scientific and astrophysical.
