“Friendly Ever After is a charming story of two strangers trying to find true friendship. When fate unites them, they realise that cultivating a new friendship is not an easy job. They discover together the beauty of companionship and the need to respect, help and understand one another.”
From: Friendly Ever After

“Bristol Sound Artist Sean Addicott presents the first performance of ‘Restless Bursts’, the opening movement of his 2019 work, ‘Tapesleep’. ‘Tapesleep’ is a meditation on sleep, composed from the perspective of an insomniac, formed from corroded cassette recordings of acoustic instruments, field sound, and tape feedback. His work embraces ambient and drone music, with apparent nods to William Basinski, Gavin Bryers and Tim Hecker. 'Restless Bursts' on all major platforms January 5th.”
