Cancelled: EADES

18+ event.
--
EADES’ sound is assembled somewhere within the shifting textures of rhythmic convulsions and low-fidelity rawness. It bounces with an after-hours hedonism. Lives on its wits. Snaps from the fingertips to the brain edges in a transmissible instant. Fidgety. Restless. Raw. Economical. Irresistible songs flecked with CBGB’s decadence. Offset by a Bukowski gutterball lyric. Laced with an appropriately dangerous, metropolis menace.
Always delivered with fearless abandon. Most bands cram you with theory, but rarely show you how hard the pavements are.

Formed in 2020, the Leeds based five-piece released the exhilarating ‘Microcosmic Things’ EP and a clutch of singles off the bat, piquing the interest of Manchester indie, Heist or Hit (Her’s / Pizzagirl / Brad Stank). Signatures inked, the group decamped to Bam Bam Studios – an ex-psychic palm reader’s work space that band members and producers Harry & Dan gutted and built out into a creative space. Sophomore EP ‘Abstract Education’ released to critical acclaim in 2021 with the likes of Fader, Paste, Brooklyn Vegan, The Guardian, The Independent, The NME, DIY, DORK, Clash, KCRW, Steve Lamaq (BBC Radio 6), Jack Saunders (BBC Radio 1) and Gemma Bradley (BBC Radio 1) all lining up to call themselves fans. It was a bracing snapshot of a band on a roll. Awash with the erratic rhythms of existence; a fever-pitch of tension and release. An uninterrupted pulse of fervent energy. Frenzied. Unrelenting. Made up of members from Far Caspian, Vraell, and English Teacher, Eades have a wealth of combined experience; from sharing stages with Wolf Alice, Sports Team, Jungle Giants, Working Men’s Club, Porridge Radio, Feet and Twin Peaks, to mixing Abbey Road sessions and producing Radio 1’s ‘Track of
the Week’ for Daisy Brain.
