TIGER MOTH TALES plus DIM GRAY

Event information

Tiger Moth Tales is the brainchild of Nottinghamshire based musician and writer Peter Jones. Apart from his own projects, Jones has been the keyboard player with prog legends Camel since 2016, including their sell out show at the Royal Albert Hall. Jones joined the Francis Dunnery band on several It Bites show tours. He works with various bands, including Red Bazar, The Bardic Depths and Robert Reed's Cyan.
Jones is probably best known as a vocalist, but he plays keyboards, guitar, sax, recorder, clarinet, whistles and various percussion. He has been involved in the music industry performing around the UK and recording his own material since the late 1990s.
He made his first real venture in to progressive rock in 2013, in an attempt to make a new start and to break away from his previous projects. The resulting album was Cocoon, an album dealing with the loss of childhood, which was released the following year through White Knight Records, to great reviews from critics and prog fans alike.
Since the success of Cocoon, Jones has released seven more studio albums under the Tiger Moth Tales band name, the latest being The Turning Of The World. In addition, he has various live albums and other releases at the Tiger Moth Tales Bandcamp page (Tigermothtales.bandcamp.com). Including his own albums and his collaborations with other artists / bands, he has contributed to over fifty studio albums since Cocoon.
While on the Tiger Moth Tales studio albums, Jones performs the majority of the instruments and vocals, on stage the songs are handled by the Tiger Moth Tales band.
• Pete Jones - vocals, keyboards, guitar and saxophone
• Andy Wilson - guitar
• Paul Comerie - drums
• Gareth Cole - bass and backing vocals
Jones has performed many shows with the Tiger Moth Tales band, including sets at festivals such as Prog Dreams in the Netherlands, Progstock in the US and the UK’s HRH prog and Summer’s End festivals.

Dim Gray are a Norwegian band known for their cinematic, atmospheric sound that fuses rock, folk, and chamber pop. Following their acclaimed debut, Flown, and the expansive, evocative soundscapes of their second album, Firmament, Dim Gray released their third studio album, Shards in February 2025. The first two singles from the album, Peril and Feathers, were hailed as Prog magazine’s tracks of the week upon their respective releases.

Described by Prog magazine as “captivating” and by Guitarist magazine as, “Well-written and superbly performed material that stays with you”, Dim Gray’s sound merges folk influences with a forward-thinking aesthetic, evoking a unique blend of Radiohead’s experimental edge and Fleet Foxes’ pastoral warmth. A wide and ever-changing palette of sounds and ideas is rooted in the constants of aching vocals and echoing guitar melodies. The quintet explores themes of nature, isolation, and self-reflection through richly layered instrumentation and vivid storytelling.

Formed by Håkon Høiberg (guitars, vocals), Tom Ian Klungland (drums), Oskar Holldorff (vocals, keys) and former member Robin Kirknes (bass), the band added new members Kristian Kvaksrud (bass) and Milad Amouzegar (guitar, keyboards) in 2023. The band have established a strong live presence and have captivated audiences while supporting renowned acts like Marillion and Big Big Train (for whom Oskar also plays keyboards).

Oskar says, “Seven of the songs on Shards are about change, upheaval, severance; something shattering to pieces. Although most of these songs are sad or dramatic, some have a tinge of hopefulness to them, as sometimes the pieces of something shattered can be rearranged in different and better ways. These seven songs are bookended by two songs that deal with the opposite; a constant stasis, an unending struggle of two opposing kinds that are reflections of our personalities.”

With the breadth and ambition of the Shards album, Dim Gray are making good on not only what has come before but also setting their sights on, despite their name, a very bright future.
