Folk Music Tonight

GEM STARK is a folksinger from the NORTH-WEST of England now situated in SOUTH-EAST LONDON influenced by ONLY CONNECT questions and other such nonsense she doesn’t quite understand. With an ANSTY FINGERSTYLE guitar and QUIVERING VOICE too RESTLESS for the country but too LACKSDAISICAL for the city, her sincere sensibilities are especially meaningful to anyone that has CRIED to the HUM of a P.A.T.-FAILED LAMP in a second-hand BOOKSHOP within a 30-MILE RADIUS of the PEAK DISTRICT.

STEPHANIE KELLY, girl-about-town sits down for a rare POETRY READING following her photography show and writing-photobook, ‘IN MINDLESS PURSUIT OF TRIVIAL PLEASURES’. Her writing is a little FUNNY, a little LUSTY, and it likes to touch on the surreality of GRIEF and YOUTH all while living through the ANTHROPOCENE.

PICTUREFRAMES have self-released two EPs of OUTSIDER GUITAR POP. Featuring multiple writers and MINIMAL FOLK-INFLECTED arrangements they conjure the changing rhythms of the NATURAL WORLD. Expect a pared-back set and some new songs.
