A gig held at Exchange on Thursday 30th April. The event starts at 19:00.


Bonniesongs (AUS)
Dreamy experimental folkish polyrhythms

Art-folk virtuoso Bonniesongs, aka Bonnie Stewart, released her debut album Energetic Mind in September 2019 via Small Pond and Art As Catharsis. The album has been proclaimed as one of the top albums of 2019 by Nialler 9, Gold Flake Paint, Low End Theorists, and many more. While previously described as “dreamy experimental indie folk”, Energetic Mind sees Bonniesongs exploring heavier and darker material while also retaining the charm of her earlier releases. Bonnie explains "I think the album is a balance of this ethereal soft sound but also a lot of darker grungy undertones have crept in".

Energetic Mind singles 'Coo Coo', ‘Ice Cream’, ‘Barbara’, and ‘Frank’ have garnered international radio plays from BBC Radio 6, Triple J, FBi Radio, and RTRFM, as well as press coverage from Paste Magazine, London In Stereo, The Line of Best Fit, CLASH, Tone Deaf, Everything Is Noise, Overdrive Magazine, and a host more.

Yumi And The Weather (BRIGHTON)
"You could possibly pitch her somewhere between St Vincent and Prince" John Kennedy (Radio X)

Since first emerging in 2013 with the acclaimed ‘All We Can’ EP, Yumi And The Weather have spent the past few years perfecting their unique blend of electrifying technicolour psych-pop and have recently unleashed their eagerly-awaited full length self- titled album, via front woman Ruby Taylor’s own MIOHMI Records imprint.

qariaq (BRISTOL)
qariaq is the moniker of Bristol-based, self taught, sound maker Esther CG. Baritone guitar, kalimba, vocals and a host of guitar pedals are emulsified, creating transcending wild soundscapes layered with dissonance and avant-garde pop sounds.

Since a debut performance at last year’s ArcTanGent, qariaq has been gaining momentum. As well as supporting the likes of Natalie Evans and Jakabol, A 4 track ep was released, weaving sounds both melodic and angular into unconventional structures, receiving positive reviews and a feature in the limelight section of Prog magazine.
