“Named after Pentangle’s ear-bending album, Basket of Light is the very first shakedown love child of Tambourine hands - uplifting dancing, hands held high, heavyweight quadraphonic sound, swimming lakes, workshops and lights in the sky. What we all need.”

“Treeboy & Arc was formed in Leeds back in 2016. At this early stage, the band were playing gigs on the landings of their parents’ houses, their friends’ house parties and the smaller venue circuit around the city. In early 2018, the band moved in together in to a small red-brick terraced house in the heart of LS6. Quickly converting their basement in to a small and damp rehearsal space made up of some egg box sound-proofing and an old carpet donated by a parent. It was at this stage the band started writing the music they play today.”

“Cruise Ctrl is one of Bristol's most hyped creatives at the moment and will be gracing the decks with a soulful blend of garage and house music, supported by their good friend and Saturate Magazine founder Sio, Bristol's lofi-house legend Wavezd and of course the Echo World residents; Saaaz and Injijo.”

“Bringing his infections funk grooves to our Terrace is producer and multi-instrumentalist Joe F Newman aka J-Felix. His future blend of boogie, p-funk, disco and soul is sure to get you movin’ – the perfect way to slide into the weekend.”
From: J-Felix & DJ Cheeba

“The Eve’s Drop DJ collective started to counter the poor representation of female acts at festivals and in the music industry in general. Promoting female DJs, from different ethnicities in order to breakdown preconceptions and barriers to music in today’s society. We have two of their founder members, both respected DJs in their own right and truly fabulous to boot.”
