Live music from:

ALESUND

'Imagine a London Grammar and Florence + The Machine hybrid. Got it? Now add ethereal, Nordic imagery similar to that of AURORA, and you’re left with the atmospheric marvel that is Ålesund'
Darlingzine

'Full of feminine power and majestic, all-encompassing sound, ‘Lightning’ is a must-listen for Kate Bush and Florence and the Machine fanatics.'
Tit Upon Tyne

BEN COOLING

Ben has spent the best part of the last 10 years playing and writing music with honesty and conviction with his to the point style and lyrics that anyone can relate to.

JAKE MORGAN

Weaving together threads of folk, country, bluegrass, jazz and blues, his husky voice and vintage writing style are evocative of a bygone musical time, with emotionally driven and widely relatable songs that draw influence from his life and travels. Think Bob Dylan, Tom Waits and Cat Stevens and you're getting close.
