Join us at The Louis for our annual International Women’s Day special, celebrating women, trans and gender-diverse artists across music and visual art!
ZIPLOCK
‘Synth chaos intertwined with heavy basslines and electrifying rhythms. Featuring members of Fat Dog and born out of London’s Windmill scene’
SPEEDIAL
South London 4 piece Speedial were described by Clash as "both direct and ultimately complex, melting together shoegaze and noise rock aspects with almost baroque about-turns"
HORSEFAIR
Horsefair are a post-rock and art-punk six piece honing sharp turns and towering swells of noise down to a science. Horsefair channels the unnerving power of PJ Harvey, the hypnotic chamber rock of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and the post-rock edge of Mogwai. In a single breath, the band can whip a crowd into a frenzy and then subdue them into hushed, cathedral-like stillness.
LIMITED LTD
Limited Ltd are a DIY femme-led punk outfit hailing from Bristol. Creating passionate, political music about experiences of isolation, discrimination and disadvantage. Inspired by bands like Wire and the Raincoats, Limited Ltd embrace punk vocals with DIY Instrumentals whilst integrating influences from bands like Electrelane.
