THE PHONE CALL
The Phone Call have been called ‘Art house indie-synth-dance pizzazz-ers’ who masterfully juxtapose electrifying, up-tempo beats, razor sharp grooves, and ‘hauntingly introspective’ downtempo lyrics, creating a sonic experience that’s equal parts adrenaline rush and late-night contemplation.
They will be playing mostly songs from their forthcoming second album, which they are being unnecessarily cryptic about, but which they assure us, will change the face of music lovers everywhere. Do not miss!

TASHI DELAY
*Only London show in 2025 tour!*
Tashi Delay is the post-punk electronica project of British-born, New Orleans-based Emily Seabroke. Her debut single Meltdown — a hypnotic blend of sound and self-taught animation — became an underground favourite.
Her 2023 album led to shows across the US, UK and Baltics. “Tashi Delay balances infectious production and stylistic intrigue with poignant reflections on our place in a digital world.” — Obscure Sound

OLI SPLEEN & THE SMITHMANTHERS
Alt-folk family band The Smithmanthers who live on the south coast of England compose and perform songs that journey betwixt the twee and the demented.
Singer Oli Spleen variously served their time in The Flesh Happening, Pink Narcissus and SPLEEN.
Following a rendezvous with the ageing Flesh Happening bass player, and dalliances with members of The Barbarian Horde and The Academy of Sun, this new collective was birthed.
Expect cello, piano, jangly things, fabulous garments, and songs about nuns, death, dreams and excrement.

CHRIS LITTLE
One day in 2025, like many others before him, CHRIS LITTLE picked up the Gospel of Mark and, on looking up from his reading some time later, thought he saw someone familiar leaving the house … He began to write some songs.
