2:00pm

Event information

The first of a monthly residency live from the basement of London's premier 3 storey victorian public house, The Betsy Trotwood. Your host Stephen Evens has curated for you variety of musical and artistic delights to fill every last Sunday of the month that he is in residence.

STEPHEN EVENS BAND
Your very own host Stephen Evens gathers his band of fine musicians to play a selection of songs from his forthcoming sophomore recorded effort EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH soon to be released on Onomatopoeia Records.

KATE ARNOLD - Hammered dulcimer, violin, vocals and darkness.
Kate Arnold some of you may know from her band Fear Of The Forest. Etherial, yet unworldly soundscapes supporting a mixture of original songs, sea shanties, reworked folk songs and subjects matter such as the a US army captain's diary entry, written at the front on 11th November 1918. My description does it no justice. Just make sure you are prepared to be spellbound.

BENJAMIN LOUCHE - RACONTEUR
Curator and host of the infamous Double R Club and host of performance art wrestling group Lucha Britannia, Benjamin will regale you with tales and reminiscences of what, I'm am not entirely sure of at present. Currently resident of London he will shortly be moving to the sweet, dark recesses of your mind.
