DUSK BROTHERS
The gritty dark swamp blues sound of Dusk Brothers (Gray and 'E' Moncrieff) draws heavily on their unconventional arsenal of self-built instruments. Guitars fashioned from old metal boxes, "Frankenstein" foot drums created by ripping down 55 gallon oil drums and bolting them onto sawn-off bass drum shells and custom valve guitar amplifiers built from scratch in their own workshop provide a raw, bluesy backdrop for growling vocal harmonies and blues harp.

These "cowboy-hatted shamans'" visceral live shows continue to astound audiences and accrue a dedicated fanbase at venues and festivals across the UK including the acclaimed Buckle & Boots Country Festival and coveted main stage appearances at Tenby Blues Festival and Carlisle Blues Rock Festival.

Dusk Brothers featured in award winning director Virginia Heath's documentary 'Cigar Box Blues - The Makers Of A Revolution', broadcast on BBC One and BBC Four.

During the 2020 lockdown the brothers transformed the ramshackle garage they use as a rehearsal room into a pallet-wood-clad private rum bar and live-streaming and recording studio. They continue to stream "The Dusk Brothers Show LIVE" on Friday nights from their infamous Rum Shack.

THE HANGOVER CLUB
The Hangover Club is a modern, energetic Americana band based in Bristol, UK. Made up of PM LeGrand, Jeffray Cold, and Helen Payne, they tell sordid cowboy tales with the help of crunchy cigar box riffs, warm acoustic guitar tones, and three-way harmonies.

The trio grew up on a diet of classic country music, including Jeff Bridges, Johnny Cash, Colter Wall and Orville Peck, before honing their craft in a more experimental and tribal universe taking from the Dead South, Hollowbelly, and Fever Ray.

The group released their debut single, Ride, in February 2020, which was mixed by Massive Attack's Stew Jackson. But even as the onset of the pandemic threw everyone's best laid plans into disarray, it provided time to rethink, reorganise, and gain new inspirations from different avenues and genres.

The Club naturally fell into its current formation in April 2021, and since has been busking its way around Bristol gaining hoards of fans on the street. The Hangover Club has played in iconic Bristol venues including the Bristol Fringe and Mr Wolf's, and the trio is now ready to play bigger stages and festivals.

2022 brought an exciting new chapter for the Hangover Club, thanks to MAS Records and the iconic Factory Studios in Bristol. The trio spent the last few months writing and recording lots of new material. They’ve released two singles so far this year, Freedom (Live at the Clifton Observatory) and Devil's Watching You. They plan to release the gritty and foreboding Leather and Stone in early September, which was recorded at J&J Studios.
