A gig on Saturday 6th August. The event starts at 19:30.
Come to Hydra Bookshop (the best anarchist bookshop in Bristol town!) for some cracking acoustic acts - coming all the way from London. There will be fab tunes, great people, super funzies, tasty as hell coffee (and hot chocolate), books and cup cakes :)
Doors at 19:30, Donation entry. Tell your friends!
LILITH AI
http://www.facebook.com/lilithaimusic
https://lilithai.bandcamp.com/releases
Lilith Ai is at the apex of London’s feminist underground. Or rather, a rising culture of young and mostly women musicians and artists who are bringing their brash style of feminism to London’s DIY scene. The Northeast London-born musician and illustrator is inciting riots with a guitar and a pen.
Lyrically, the singer-songwriter continues in the tradition of riot grrrls like Sleater Kinney and Kathleen Hanna but sonically, Ai’s music has more in common with London’s alternative soul movement.
ME REX
http://www.facebook.com/merexmasks
http://www.merex.bandcamp.com/
Described as 'kind of like a cross between Art Brut & Kraft Werk', this epithet actually began life as a pun about arts and crafts, but was found to be so appropriate that it stuck. ME-REX's songwriting will hit you in the guts and tug at your heart until, just before you're fully bawling, he offers to play toy dinosaurs with you. Their new EP 'Stegosaurus' is out this year and, as with previous release 'Triceratops' will be available exclusively for dinoload (not a typo).
REVELLO
https://www.facebook.com/revellouk/
"Melodic folk punk accompanied by poetic, down to earth lyrics that will fill you with fun and love."
Our fave Bristol acoustic act - complete with heart warming lyrics, crashing chords, buffy-themed references and EPs featuring pictures of angry cats.
VIOLET SCOTT
https://www.facebook.com/violetscottmusic/
Solo anarcho-moody-melodic-punk hailing from the Bristol hills. Telling the tales of mid-twenties confusion, hope, a love of general greenery, and an unquenchable wanderlust. Violet is a member of local punk band Viva Zapata! – expect to hear some of their tunes with a solo twist, and super-new Violet Scott originals too!
