Event information

Ed’s first music making was with Brothers in Sound, the three piece formed in 1998, releasing three EPs and an album with Regal Recordings and BMG. He then spent several years composing music for short films and theatre projects, including The Paper Cinema before embarking on a solo career in 2012. He released 2 EPs (in 2013 and 2014) before joining the ranks of Lost Map Records, who released his debut album, The Uncle Sold in January 2017. His music has regularly appeared on BBC6 Music and BBC Radio 3's Late Junction, which included The Uncle Sold in their Top 12 albums of 2017.

“affirms the talent and ability of this accomplished, bold and starry-eyed visionary” - The Quietus

“absolutely extraordinary… atmospheric, surprising, unexpected” - Lauren Laverne, BBC6 Music

“beautiful and haunting” - Tom Ravenscroft, BBC6 Music

THE NATURE CENTRE
The Nature Centre plays three-minute pop songs, stuffed with ideas like a suitcase packed too late. Based in Birmingham, the four-piece quotes freely from flowery psych, faded art rock cassettes, scratchy punk and arena weirdos. The result is playful, serious, cute and thorny - a combination that could only have been nurtured in their home base, the Capital of Uncool.

For fans of Cardiacs, XTC, Cate le Bon, Field Music, Family Fodder, and anything that celebrates the weirder side of pop, psych and life.

LITTLE BITBOY
8-bit style creations of some recognizable tunes using all kinds of blips, blops, samples and gadgets.
