DOWNSTAIRS:
- NINA REBECCA
Nina Rebecca is a singer songwriter from Somerset, UK. Her music is reflective of a mixture of the rural landscapes she grew up in, Sephardic melodies from her time living in southern Spain, and her folk inspirations (Nick Drake, Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell). She uses intricate finger picking and alternative tunings to create gentle and haunting melodies that relish in dissonance... she likes to describe her music as ‘lullabies for adults’.
- EARTH SURRENDER
Earth Surrender is the project of Calam Wright, fusing post punk grit, 80s drum machines
and melancholic vocals. What began as late night bedroom recordings now channels a lofi
chaos of longing and disconnection.
- AGNES SALES
Agnes Sales is a cross-genre vocalist who weaves different vocal styles into stripped back personal and folk grunge songs with guitar to accompany.
- ODISHO
Odisho doesn’t just play electronic music; they fracture it. Blending heavy industrial techno, glitchy trip-hop, and avant-garde jazz, this underground provocateur creates relentless, genre-defying soundscapes. Odisho's signature is their live saxophone—stripped of its smooth clichés and wired through over driving mechanical basslines. Expect a visceral, unpredictable live set of beautiful, brass-fueled chaos.
- SONOTTO
From the Scottish Highlands to the London underground, Sonotto (Otto Neckel) crafts a restless blend of glitchy IDM, ambient textures, and soulful "bedroom pop." Known for a high-energy live show honed in the Bristol scene, his sound—captured in his debut album WE ARE LABELS—is a collision of fractured beats and emotive, synth-soaked soundscapes. Expect a genre-bending performance that sits somewhere between experimental electronica and "electro-sleaze" urgency.
- TESS MORRIS GROUP
Tess Morris brings a refreshing vitality to the folk tradition, offering two distinct musical experiences that range from expansive to intimate. With the Tess Morris Group, she leads a vibrant ensemble that blends rich harmonies and driving rhythms into a cinematic, high-energy take on roots music; conversely, her duo project with Killian Lee strips away the layers to focus on the raw, interlocking melodies and soulful storytelling inherent in the folk craft. Together, these projects showcase a versatile artist capable of both foot-stomping collective energy and the quiet, evocative power of a shared acoustic connection.
- CHICOS
Warning! Chicos incoming
- JED MARTIN
Folk bangers, ballads & originals. Pretty finger-picked guitar, whistling harmonica, cutting lyrics. Jed Martin (@poundshoppoet) is a songwriter, poet, philosopher and folksinger who cut his teeth in the London folk clubs, and earned his stripes playing in the pubs and squares of Bristol and Bath.
- D. PACINI & B. HINTON
A cornerstone of Bristol’s alternative folk scene, Dan Pacini, joined by Ben Hinton, blend intricate fingerstyle guitar and banjo with sharp, contemporary storytelling. Whether leading the indie-punk energy of Hypothetics or operating his own Long Cat Recording Co., Dan’s solo work remains rooted in the raw traditions of acoustic blues and "American primitive" styles.
- PAPER CLOUDS
Anachronistically moving forward, Paper Clouds are an emerging indie alternative band with sounds of post-punk, folk and garage, whilst retaining the sound of 60s pop. Expect songs containing echoing slide guitar, mellotron, vintage organ, put together to create a dreamy, nostalgic yet primal sound.
- VENICE TREACLE
Groove-enhanced quirk punk for the progressively confused, Venice Treacle fuse acid-sharp riffs and rapturous rhythms into songs for troubled times.
- SAPIR-WHORFS
New post-punk band. Bass driven abrasive strangeness.
