forest of fools, Ginhouse Gypsies and Hibword live, (see details below), plus Analogue Anonymous DJs playing an eclectic mix of magic upstairs in the heavens.


forest of fools fuse
In the blink of an eye, you’ll be whisked from the courtyards of Medieval England, to an underground warehouse party. 180 BPM D&B and Jungle Drum sections masterfully interlaced with African Percussion set the tempo for a high-energy supernova of effects-laden trance-folk Melodeon and psychedelic Lead Guitar. Harmonious funk-laced Bass Guitar sits alongside didge-inspired, multi-phonic Sousaphone Brass to create a sub-bass frenzy with serious groove. The resulting composition is as ground-breaking as it is sonically beautiful; a true musical odyssey for the 21st Century.

Ginhouse Gypsies - Seductive, sensual and diverse. The Ginhouse Gypsies are a gypsy, jazz, blues collective from Northampton.

SIx uniquely talented musicians bring different influences from around the globe - Spanish guitar, Balkan melodies and African rhythms - to create a live performance which leads the audience through the folk traditions of the world.
Fronting the Gypsies are the trio of female musicians who bring the stage alive with three-piece harmony and contemporary and tribal belly dance, hypnotising the audience with tales of suppression, passion, anxiety, adventure, old love, new love and late-night gin-houses.
