Oxford! Divine Schism host London art-pop band Firestations next month hot on the heels of their new record ‘International Dust’ which came out yesterday on Lost Map Records - they play the Library with Bristol-based kaleidoscopic doo-wop act Patsy Delve and Oxford’s jangle alt-rockers Nothing Dreams on Weds 4th Nov!

This tour marks a return to Firestations’ full five-piece band format after a journey into more stripped back alt-folk territory on last year’s ‘Many White Horses’. The nine tracks on the new album encompass an eclectic and intuitive mix of art-pop, alt-country and hypnotic cyclical numbers, shaped collectively by the band as a unit through various twists and turns at rehearsal sessions during 2024.

Excited to see Firestations for the first time, encompassing an eclectic and intuitive mix of dream-pop, alt-country and hypnotic cyclical numbers that were shaped collectively by the whole band through their various twists and turns through rehearsals for this sparkling new record.

Patsy Delve bring their tender pop, haunted tape manipulation, frazzled microphone hiss and reverb soaked androgynous vocals to Oxford for the first time, combining all this into one package perfect for late night bars and streets lit by flickering streetlights.

Nothing Dreams are back on the stage with their catchy, ramshackle Pastels-eque jangle-rock!

From 7.30pm on Weds 4th Nov in the basement of the Library. 18+ show! #oxford #oxfordmusic #oxfordmusicscene #lostmaprecords
