SURPRISE OXFORD! Youthmovies are back - hitting the Bullingdon for a homecoming show on Thurs 20th Aug - on sale now.

Known for a dense, restless sound that veered through noise, post-rock, math rock, psych, jazz, and krautrock, often within the same song, Youthmovies (2002-2010) were a fiercely unclassifiable quintet from Oxford. Touring extensively, they built a reputation as a chaotic and immersive live act. Beyond conventional shows, they performed improvised soundtracks in galleries, theatres, and forests - playing as backing band for Saul Williams and Can's Damo Suzuki, among others. This homecoming marks a rare return to the city that made them, from a band whose quiet influence on the UK underground far outweighed their commercial footprint. For fans of Squid, Black Midi, Do Make Say Think, King Crimson, and American Football.

Wondrous support from London's Olive Wreath and He Didn't. Olive Wreath blew us away in April with their twisty, emotional electronic-infused hyperfolk - intricate guitars and otherworldly altered vocals to the fore! He Didn't uses technology and distortion as writing tools and forces to express emotions - influenced by 1980s industrial music and 2020s electronic music as well as subtle Soft Cell/Depeche Mode mode inspirations. Oh yes!

Doors 7pm, all ages (under 14s with and adult) and wheelchair accessible show on Thurs 20th Aug at the Bullingdon. A happening not to be missed - Youthmovies' first show in town since 2017!
