Irregular Folk Summer Sessions

Event information

Wow now this line up is about to take you on a journey so beautifully eccentric you’d think it was made for the Perch.

RALFE BAND - http://www.ralfeband.com/
BEN WALKER - http://ihatemornings.bandcamp.com/
COUNT DRACHMA - http://countdrachma.bandcamp.com/

We go all the way out to Africa with the incredibly beautiful Zulu inspired music from COUNT DRACHMA.

Then, just as you are way out there, we ping back to Oxford with BEN WALKER. We are super proud to be bringing you a rare outing of Ben’s solo set, made up largely of 12-second songs. His superbly written lyrics and deft musicianship.

Just when you think you’ve got as close to Oxford as you can after having been so far away we get even closer RALFE BAND used to live next door to the Perch. Recently returned from touring with I Am Kloot, their forthcoming album “Son Be Wise” has been getting high praise from the likes of Marc Riley, and Mark Radcliff et al.

"Beautiful, angular music that envelops your body like an erotic triffid. Charismatic, magical and eccentric in the best possible way"
NOEL FIELDING / THE MIGHTY BOOSH, in NME

TAKE THE BOAT THERE! If we get 25 people confirmed by Fri 6pm 14th June to travel to the Perch via boat (£10 return, leaving Folly Bridge at 7pm, and returning from the Perch at 11pm) we have been kindly offered a Salters Steamer for the evening. If we don't get that 25, we don't errr steam. If you want to go, register your confirmation on this page and we'll get back to you.
