The Line up

Art Room
Hailing from Southwest London, this sibling-led three-piece band, with Amber on vocals/guitar, Will on bass and their childhood friend Luke on drums, incorporate a melting pot of influences spanning 70s to present day, from the intricate rhythms of punk and progressive rock to the vibrant groove of funk, their music is a rollercoaster of sonic exploration.

Very much live-music led, the band has already achieved band-defining moments such as performing on a new band stage at Glastonbury 2022, at the 02 Academy in Islington, having their album ‘On The Lilac River’ produced by Morgan Nicholls (formerly of The Streets and The Gorillas) and being interviewed on BBC Radio, RTL Luxembourg and Delaware University Radio.

The Forty Fours
One of the highest regarded rock and roll bands to emerge from Cornwall, The Forty Fours take influence from traditional Blues and Merseybeat to create an energising live set of covers and original material. Now based in London and following the release of their first demo album, Fourplay, they look towards a resurgence in classic British Invasion music.

Display’s of vocal harmony, raw rhythm and blues instrumentation and passion are what have come to be the essence of The Forty Fours. Always coupled with authenticity and style.

Comprising of Oliver Harriss (lead guitar and vocals), Jason Bazeley (Bass guitar and vocals), and Jay Grieve (drums), The Forty Fours are a group that must be experienced, live and on record.
