Headfirst Editor's Pick
"French Americana outsider Ryder the Eagle channels his itinerant hauntings into splintered synth-pop, cross-hatched with the ghostly aftertaste of country and western. An iconoclast street performer brimming with gothic wit and pathos, he projects sinister swagger and lovesick cynicism FFO: Jonathan Richman, Suicide, The Magnetic Fields."

A gig held at The Ill Repute on Thursday 16th October. The event starts at 19:45.
Step into the emotional world of Ryder the Eagle, the self-proclaimed “softcore entertainer” blending lo-fi synth-pop, raw vulnerability, and infectious hooks. Part crooner, part confessional poet, Ryder brings his heartbreak anthems and soul-baring charm to the divey warmth of The Ill Repute for one unforgettable night.
Get ready for a show that's equal parts heartache and humour, complete with leather trousers, bedroom beats, and unfiltered storytelling. Whether he’s dancing on the tables or whispering into the mic, Ryder turns every gig into an intimate therapy session - with better lighting.
Don’t miss your chance to catch this cult hero of the European DIY scene in Bristol’s most beloved Elvis-filled, mezcal-slinging dive bar.
Come early, stay late, feel things.
