Truthpaste at The Louisiana
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Sell out warning! How do the Cellar Door team have time to sleep between these unreasonably stacked line-ups?! You lucky weirdo-rock goblins, wrap your ears around: experimental folk-pop whimsy from Truthpaste, The Slow Country’s swooning neo-Heartland indie, Tai Haf Heb Drigolyn’s hypnagogic rock loveliness, and ramshackle 60s-style singer-songwriting from Scuttlers frontman Myer U Clark. Sublime!"

The Slow Counntry
“Driven by a wistfulness similar to The War on Drugs, and a romantic tone closer to Nick Cave, The Slow Country’s sound is a melting pot of vibrant charm and sombre undertones.” - So Young

Tai haf heb drigolyn are a musicband from wales. Obsessed with the elephant 6 collective, the band has members across the country. Putting tape front and centre, the band stumbles after the footsteps of R. Pollard and D. R Edwards.

Myer U Clark is a Bristol-based singer-songwriter and a melody fanatic. An obsessive of old English folk tunes and PC Music equally, he has a penchant for the emotional and the absurd; especially in folk and theatrical musical environments. With conscientious vocals overlaid on intricately fingerpicked guitar melodies, his songs have a strange alchemy of Cole Porteresque charm with modern sensibilities.
