“Let it be clear: few bands have mastered the art of communicating and releasing tension as well as Lorient, France's DEATH ENGINE. Delivered with an effortless austerity, their suffocating brand of noise rock-infused hardcore is unarguably of the most unmerciful sort. Now back to the three-piece that recorded their groundbreaking debut EP "Amen" (2013), the french band returns with "Place Noire", their second full-length.”

“Roxy Music frontman and pop icon Bryan Ferry returns to Colston Hall stage, offering “a sad strangeness and aesthetic perfectionism that still sets him apart” (Telegraph). Performing tracks from the highly-acclaimed album Avonmore, alongside classic hits from his solo and Roxy Music back catalogue, Ferry’s talent for “wringing beauty from despair” (Telegraph) with “more than a dash of style” (The Express) hasn’t dwindled over the years.”
