Paul Curreri & Band (Paul Curreri, Alex Neilson, Lucy Anne Sale, Joe Carvell)
His acclaimed debut, From Long Gones To Hawkmoth, was released in 2002 (“Curreri is full of taste and truth, poetic jewels.” – 9X Magazine). A triumphant follow-up, 2003’s Songs For Devon Sproule – produced by Kelly Joe Phelps – was hailed by Vintage Guitar Magazine as “one of the very finest records in awhile. And, I don’t mean just in this genre. I mean, any genre.” 2004’s The Spirit of the Staircase found Curreri continuing to shoulder into new lyrical and musical terrain (“Curreri has sculpted a direction of his own. Dexterous guitar work and hushed insight, full of soul and originality. " – Americana-UK). With clarity of vision, &
astoundingly visceral playing & singing, 2006’s Are You Going To Paul Curreri captured him stretching out in front of a live audience, electric and rocking. Now married to the legendary Devon Sproule, Paul's latest album - The Velvet Rut - was released on Tin Angel Records in 2007.

Black Carrot
Black Carrot are a vibrant quintet who perform new-wave krautrock jazz madness that oozes rock with a psychotic edge. Fierce and abstract yet serving the concept of the song, their unique sound nods towards Beefheart and Pere Ubu, & but is shot through with flavours of New York jazz skronk,
and the loosest, funkiest Krautrock.

Black Carrot release their second studio album "Drink The Black Forest" on Tin Angel Records on 3rd November 2008. They have had support slots with Faust, The Fall, Polar Bear, Damo Suzuki, Evan Parker, The Blessing, Chris Corsano, Kling Klang, Das Pop, plus many festival dates.....
