DOUBLE HEADER

as part of Independent Venue Week

REV MAGNETIC BUNKERPOP

Tickets on sale now – £7 from theadelphi.com

REV MAGNETIC

“While touring the world as guest multi-instrumentalist with Mogwai, Luke Sutherland (Long Fin Killie, Bows, Music A.M.) used the downtime to sketch a bunch of songs. Once he got home, he wrote a handful more and recorded them with the help of a few friends at his cottage on the edge of the Scottish Highlands. The result was an album’s worth of material with references ranging from My Bloody Valentine to Teebs, Lemmy-era Hawkwind to ABBA, Vaughan Williams to Boulez.

“Keen to translate the radiant chaos of the recordings into a live setting, Luke put together Rev Magnetic, featuring Audrey Bizouerne (Gift Horse), Sam Leighton (Live w/ Prides, St MARTiiNS) and Gregor Emond who played with Luke in a band called Hynd, way back before the birth of the internet. Combining elements of dream pop, shoegaze, R&B, and post rock, their first single, Like No Girl That Ever Was/Don’t Let Joy Destroy You is the sound of summer at full pelt.”

BUNKERPOP

An experimental mash of energy, titivating instrumental and electronic sound. Hailing from Hull, Bunkerpop are influenced by groups as Neu and Talking Heads. Their live show combines these musical charms with the excitement and visual stimuli of a Billy Graham, PFunk or a Flaming Lips concert. A band for the people, cult like worship is encouraged!

—————————————————

Independent Venue Week is a 7-day celebration of small music venues around the country and a nod to the people that own, run and work in them, week in, week out.

These venues give artists their first experience of playing live in front of an audience and for fans, somewhere to get up close to artists that one day, may well be playing stadiums and festival main stages.

Supported using public funding by Arts Council England in the UK and also the wider music industry and brands globally, Independent Venue Week brings together these venues along with breaking and established artists, promoters, labels, media, bloggers and tastemakers to create a nationwide series of gigs.

These venues are the backbone of the live music scene in their country and Independent Venue Week wants to recognise all that they have done to create some of the most memorable nights of the past so they can continue to do the same in the future.

Under The Influence presents BILLY LOCKETT supports

Doors 8 pm

Tickets £13 Bf from seetickets

Northampton born singer / songwriter BILLY LOCKETT returns with his most personal work to date in the shape of provocative new EP ‘RESET’.

Following a whirlwind 12 months which has seen the young artist play his own 17 date tour across 9 countries / 16 cities with his biggest, sold-out London headline show at Shepherds Bush Empire, a 25 date EU / UK slot with global act ELO, and a 9 date slot with Lewis Capaldi, LOCKETT also announces his debut US shows across New York and Los Angeles.

The new project reflects a particularly challenging time personally and professionally, and sees the young artist return to being fully independent, laying down his demons and coming full circle back to his original sound.

Speaking on the new project, Billy quotes;

“The reason I’ve called this EP “Reset” is because that’s exactly what it is. I’m re-tuning my sound back to how it used to be.

When I signed to a major record label they pushed for me to make commercial pop records and I think it made my fans question my sound and it definitely made me question myself.

What I thought would be an amazing experience turned out to be an awful time for me. But now I’ve moved on, this EP is all about going back to my roots and letting you hear the songs in their simplest form.

How I created them and how I wanted them to be heard. No gimmicks. Purely music and meaning. This is the first EP I’ve released since Burn It Down and it almost feels like an older brother to that record haha. I really am so proud of it!”

Talking specifically on the meaning behind lead single / video ‘HARD ACT TO FOLLOW’;

“I almost feel as though ‘Hard Act To Follow’ is the song I’ve spent my life looking for.

I’ve recently had my heart broken into a million pieces and this song is therapy for me. As much as it kills me to sing and listen to it, I needed to write this song. Any one going through a heart break will understand this tune, I truly mean every word in it and have never been this excited about anything in my career before”

Catch LOCKETT as he heads out on a headline UK tour in early 2020!

Pink Wafer host the Sheffield leg of the UK tour of Swiss synth-poppers Soybomb and Leeds nu-rock tour-de-force Joshua Zero. With support from underground favourites Rosey PM and Biscuit Kiss, this night will drip with sweet musical nectar and warm your weary soul.

//

Soybomb
Berlin-based squelchy, jazzy, synth-pop, from three gorgeous boys who ran away from the snow-capped mountains of Switzerland to settle in Sheffield’s German counterpart. Herbie Hancock meets the Beatles in a ski lodge in the Alps.

//

Joshua Zero
The Leeds ‘heart-throb from hell’. Jeff Buckley meets Father John Misty. If you thought you didn’t like rock, then listen harder. The voice of a fallen angel and a band of pure power.

//

Rosey PM
The self-proclaimed ‘pajama-jazz’ singer-songwriter, who has a dangerous obsession with Robbie Williams. Sweet, gooey, heart-warming goodness mixed with accidental stand-up comedy.

//

Biscuit Kiss
Spacey, psychedelic, jazzy grooves for a new decade. With the new addition of singer Kirsty Millington, Biscuit Kiss will bliss you out with their sweet and warm sounds and jazz changes.

The Breakfast Club returns for 2020, with an amazing list of shows!

Starting with a TNS Records touring double bill featuring garage punk behemoth NOSEBLEED – who, as many who have already seen them will testify, absolutely slay Hull every time they play, so you really don’t want to miss this.

They are out on tour with TNS label mates and fellow Leeds musician TIM LOUD with his band THE TERRORPINS, with their blend of Punk, Folk, Melody and Message, his vocal style is reminiscent of Hull alumni Paul Heaton at times, but then he blasts into a rockabilly jig. He has an intrinsically Adelphi sound so will fit right in.

Opening up the show and making their Hull debut are Scarborough melodic punkers BEAR AWAY – think Husker Du channelled through The Wildhearts and a nod to Hot Water Music and Hull band Bloodsport.

Capping it all off is DJ The Liquidizer. This is an immense Saturday night so go get yourself a ticket, you won’t regret it.

Gaz Brookfield

Since winning Acoustic Magazine’s 2010 Singer Songwriter of the year, he has spent his time on the road, touring the UK and Europe. In this time he has shared the stage with the likes of The Levellers, New Model Army, Seth Lakeman, Frank Turner, The Wonder Stuff, Newton Faulkner and many more.

Gaz remains the only unsigned solo artist to sell out The Fleece, Bristol. A feat he has now achieved five times, the last three selling out over six months in advance. This has made Gaz’s annual Christmas shindig gig an unmissable tradition for his fans.

Often playing as many as 200 gigs a year, Gaz’s relentless tour schedule takes him to every corner of the country and beyond. Upon the release of his latest studio album “I Know My Place”, the subsequent tour sold out at nearly every venue, across the country.

A festival favourite, Gaz has played at over a hundred UK music festivals in the last few years, including Glastonbury, Beautiful Days, Bearded Theory, Boomtown and many more.

Heather Woods Broderick, playing with full band Support

Doors 8 pm

Tickets £10 / £8 members from theadelphi.com

Heather Woods Broderick excels at distilling her experiences into a soulful melancholy that’s enduring both for it’s intimate relatable moments and its persistent sense of mystery. Her uncanny ear for evocative production and gorgeous vocal harmonies serves her well on her new album Glider. Throughout the album, the rich dreamlike atmospheres she creates hint at a darkness looming on the horizon, while the singularity of her ethereal voice always seems to linger long after the music has stopped.

As a talented multi-instrumentalist and vocalist, Heather has had the opportunity to record and tour with plenty of incredible artists including Horse Feathers, Efterklang, Sharon Van Etten, and Lisa Hannigan, which has kept her moving house and traveling around the world for much of the past decade. She currently lives on the coast of Oregon, but it’s easy to imagine how her peripatetic lifestyle might diminish her sense of a place to call home, while also strengthening her resilience, and her connection to the reassuring constants in her life. As she explains “Living in so many different places has made me able to feel pretty comfortable everywhere.” Her uncommon sense of ease and grace, despite her hectic life, stems in part from her deeply rooted and intertwined musical and familial background.

Music took root in Heather’s life before she was even born, when her parents, both musicians, met for the first time at one of her mom’s gigs, which her dad was attending. The two married and moved to Maine where Heather, second of three children, was born at home. When she was 8-years-old the family moved across the country to Oregon, and soon after moving, she asked if she could take piano lessons, a practice she would continue through high school and into college. In elementary school band she learned flute, and later picked up cello and guitar.

Though the songs on Glider aren’t explicitly about touring, her life on the road provides the backdrop and context for her songs that are often about relationships that naturally fade as two people grow apart. “I’ve realized that I really used the songs on Glider and the time I put into writing them as a way to pay some attention to things I’d been putting off, and to find some clarity around certain events,” says Heather. Building on what she learned from her first solo effort From the Ground (2009), the dynamic structures and emotional complexity of her new songs are evidence of how much she’s grown as a person and as a songwriter. More confident and self-assured than ever, songs like “Fall Hard” evolve from vulnerable bare piano and vocals to hypnotizing swells of vocals reminiscent of Grouper or Cocteau Twins’ Elizabeth Fraser. Her voice soars in stride with a wall of guitars on “Wyoming”, while “Mama Shelter” introduces a gentle groove as Heather conjures the sensuality of Stevie Nicks. The album closes with the heartbreaking “All for a Love”, ending with the refrain “I can see our love is dragging you down.” As dark as the sentiment can be, Heather always seems to be leaning into the light.

Doors 8 pm

£12.50 BF from seetickets

2019 has been a hell of a year for the super-smoky-voiced, hard-working, far-touring chanteuse Elles Bailey. On 8th March, she dropped her eagerly-anticipated second album ‘Road I Call Home’ to rave reviews, with the album charting in the Official UK Country Charts & Americana charts, gaining over 1.3 million streams since its release and reaching No.1 on the Amazon Blues Bestseller chart

Like its chart-topping predecessor, ‘Road I Call Home’ features co-writing contributions from high-calibre collaborators, including British hit-making legend and Ivor Novello Award winner Roger Cook, storied Memphis and Nashville giant Bobby Wood, as well as Dan Auerbach (of Akron, Ohio powerhouses The Black Keys) on the infectious ‘Little Piece of Heaven’

As a self-confessed ‘rolling stone’ – Elles genuinely does call ‘the road’ home. She’s continued her wide-ranging headline touring throughout the UK and Europe and was also special guest support for Grammy Award winner Mike Farris, Martin Harley, The Kris Barras Band and King King.

2018/19 has also seen Elles Bailey move up the festival listings becoming a featured artist at key festivals including Black Deer, Swing Wesplaar, Ramblin’ Man Fair, & The GB R&B Festival. She also headed stateside for the International House Of Songs Summit in Arkansas and played Nashville’s Americana Fest.

2020 sees Elles touring the UK in March, Germany in April and playing many more international stages including taking to the high seas for the Joe Bonamassa ‘Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea’ cruise alongside the man himself, Joe Bonamassa, King King, Samantha Fish,Walter Trout and many more.
