“A fascinating, funny and very personal talk exploring the themes of magic, memory, spiritualism, Britain’s weirdest museum (the Pitt Rivers) and psychedelics. Attempting to answer the question – what does magic mean to us in the 21st century? – Bramwell’s takes the audience on a ten-year adventure, which began after he inherited a hundred-year-old moustache in a box, bequeathed to him by an eccentric aunt.”

“Hazel Brill's work spans video, animation, sound, sculpture, text and performance. Employing melodrama and absurdity, Brill looks at tensions between agency, control, fact and fiction. Her works combine disparate contexts, playing with storytelling in popular culture with reference to techniques of seduction and corporate language.”

“How To Beat Up Your Dad is the tale of one young mans journey through manhood. From being a meek teenager looking for the secret to losing his virginity to becoming a young man stealing Yakults, searching for happiness and finally standing up to his own dad. Told through a cocktail of performance, spoken word, music and storytelling, How To Beat Up Your Dad is a dark comedy about masculinity and all the wrong ways to solve your problems.”

“Releasing his debut solo album in 2007, he followed it up with the self-released 2011 album ‘Piety & Desire’ which saw collaborators include the likes of Brandi Carlile, The Felice Brothers, And Jolie Holland. He’s described as a songwriter who “bares his soul through a deeply personal, elegant collection of tracks that functions like a song cycle of heartbreak,” (ThankFolkForThat).”
