Event information

Monthly showcase of hotly tipped emerging bands and singers.

CHARLY COOMBES & THE NEW BREED
Through the sprawling spires, back streets and country fields of Oxford, reside four young men, collectively known as CHARLY COOMBES & THE NEW BREED. Formed in 2009, this red-blooded rock & roll band is firmly rooted in a mix of contemporary rock and old time soul. The tight, keyboard-driven group have toured the UK and North America, as well as an extensive tour of Brazil in 2011. They also have two EPs under their belts: "Panic" and "Waves". Their third EP "Noise Control" is due for release in early 2012, as well as a further UK tour.

COMMON TONGUES
"There's no greater feeling than being licked by the Common Tongues" Jeremy Sallis, BBC Radio Cambridge
Common Tongues are an indie folk 5 piece band hailing from the shores of Brighton. They released their debut single 'Jumping Ships' through Something Nothing Records May 2011. Singer/guitarists Tom and Oli grew up together in rural Cambridge sharing a passion for songwriting that blossomed into compelling stories of their lives and loves. Having played at Bestival after winning a competition run by Replay clothing, in association with Clash magazine, Common Tongues enjoyed a very busy 2011. www.facebook.com/commontongues

ROB MARR
He will be performing solo, showcasing songs from his second album, Anatomy. The record is the result of a two-year collaboration between Rob's distinctively English
piano-led songwriting and ex-Sly and the Family Stone drummer Andy Newmark's vintage New York grooves.
Cerys Matthews BBC 6 Music described his current single, Fencebuilding as
"An astonishing piece of music"
"Brilliant British pop as it should be" - Drowned in Sound
"Impressive" - The Independent

RICHIE SYRETT
Richie Syrett is a Manchester based singer/songwriter whose typically melodic and ragged style makes a grateful nod to a number of rootsy influences whilst all the time maintaining it's own signature sound. He has just released a new album 'Good Morning Midnight'.

"Employing the sparse, reverbed sound that only great singers such as early Elvis, Chris Isaacs and Jeff Buckley have used, Mancunian Richie gets away with it. Totally worth checking out!" - Rhythm Magazine -
"Profoundly melodic Americana-flecked folk-rock - Syrett has developed an individual vision which shows much promise for the future." - Americana UK -
