Fronted by indiepop blonde bombshell Tracy Tracy, The Primitives emerged from the independent scene of the mid-80s that spawned The Jesus and Mary Chain, My Bloody Valentine, The Wedding Present and Primal Scream.

Their sound distilled the shimmering guitar jangle of The Byrds, the buzzsaw style of The Ramones and '60s girl group melodies into two and a half minute pop gems. Regular session guests on John Peel’s radio show, with many an appearance in his Festive Fifty, their career was boosted/hindered when Morrissey named them as one of his favourite bands.

Hotpipe Hillbillies is a documentary about community, resilience, and finding joy in the most unlikely of places. Against the backdrop of Shoreham’s industrial shoreline, a diverse crew of surfers gather at an industrial outflow pipe to ride waves that are often messy, fickle, and short-lived.

This ain’t Cornwall. It sure ain’t California. But for this crew, it’s home. Through humour, grit, and an irrepressible love of surfing, they reveal what it means to find belonging in the water – and why passion, not perfection, is what keeps us paddling out.

Ghost Funk Orchestra is the brainchild of composer/multi-instrumentalist Seth Applebaum. What started as a one-man recording project has now evolved into a 10-piece powerhouse live band. It’s a sonic kaleidoscope that defies genre specification, but draws heavy influence from the worlds of soul, psych rock, salsa, and beyond. Their unique blend of genres has attracted praise from the likes of Bandcamp, KUTX, Brooklyn Vegan, Earmilk, and more. Local NY blog Post-Trash described their sound as a ‘psych odyssey of traditional sounds delivered in a non-traditional fashion.’ Bandcamp’s Editorial Director J. Edward Keyes praised the band’s ability to ‘leave no funk-adjacent genre unexplored.’ Now, coming off of their highly regarded 2019 release ‘A Song For Paul,’ GFO is hard at work preparing their follow-up LP, to be released in fall 2020 on Karma Chief.
