Event information
British-Ugandan singer-songwriter Daudi Matsiko’s debut album, ‘The King Of Misery,’ is a hauntingly beautiful exploration of depression, bipolar disorder, and finding hope in that experience. His fragile yet powerful vocals, evocative lyrics, and modern folk melodies have earned high praise from Gilles Peterson, Lauren Laverne, Jamz Supernova, Dean Jackson, Sian Eleri, Jamie Cullum, Tom Robinson, John Kennedy, Simon Phillips, and comedian and podcaster Adam Buxton.
Conn Thornton: Drawing from their upbringing as a classical musician and a composer, Conn Thornton's musical ethos takes inspiration from the work of Sufjan Stevens, Arthur Russell and Jeff Buckley to create their own brand of ethereal alternative folk
Carpet: With credits stretching from Yard Act to Holly Humberstone, and previous stints across numerous local bands, including Crakes and The Spills, Rob Slater has situated himself as a notable name within the DIY Yorkshire music scene. Now, having recently revamped his solo project, the multi-hyphenate is merging his past and current influences to create his most refined sound yet.
