Jennifer Reid, Elspeth Anne, plus T.T. Vale at Exchange

"Totally inspired triple bill of radical anti-folk, droning alt-country and squashed dream pop, ft. Jennifer Reid’s banner-burning takes on Lancashire industrial revolution ballads and Elspeth’s shruti-heavy pastoral wonders. Mandatory attendance FFO: Shovel Dance, Shirley Collins, Lankum, Stick In The Wheel."
