Caspian's Island make a return to the stage with their friends beachtown and 3108 boasting their longest set yet packed full of bangers from them and their guest artists. Set to release brand new material, CI is getting ready to show the audience what they've been missing in the band's absence the past year with a set-length of almost an hour!

Get lots in the groove of the electro-psychedelic swirls coming from the 4-piece band hailing from London. Having released their single "My Lips, Your Lips" featured on BBC Radio 1, they hit the live scene dishing out truckloads of energy with every show. CI have released their first vinyl too which includes the dreamy kaleidoscopic "Imperial Echo Vault" for which both tracks mentioned above have two versions of each self-made music videos. Renowned for pushing the details in every second of their ingredients, Caspian's Island's sound has been compared to Tame Impala, Weezer, Unknown Mortal Orchestra and more so keep checking the frequencies so you can be present in the unveiling.

Joining Caspian's Island is beachtown, consisting of Menorca born Zaine Masoliver and Londoner Fred Cowan, beachtown weave together an eclectic tapestry of influences, often finding inspiration from introverted, enigmatic flag-bearers such as King Krule and Los Angeles based experimental artist Dijon.

beachtown was formed in 2019, during a chance meeting in the queue for a gig in Kingston, South London when the search for a lost ticket turned into a conversation.

Two years on and beachtown are fast becoming one of the most exciting up-and-coming alternative acts in London; they are at the heart of their own sonic revolution, redefining what indie can mean.

31Ø8 is the brainchild of London-based fuzz pop musician Kyle Hill. In 2014 Hill was picked up by Chicago neo-psych label Trouble In Mind Records who eagerly released the debut 31Ø8 LP. Subsequent releases on Jigsaw Records and Dreamland Syndicate garnered airplay from Stuart Maconie and Gideon Coe at BBC Radio 6 Music. Blending 90s punk, baggy synth-pop and Grebo-chic 31Ø8 guarantees to start the pogo-party. Hill is currently recording a fourth 31Ø8 album.

All this for the price of six British pounds, it cannot be missed.

Sach and Tilly are very proud to present a night showcasing London’s most exciting music…Cowbell Practice is back for round 2!

This time around Human Interest will be bringing their joyous sounds to the legendary stage.

Some of London’s finest rock & rollers, Human Interest have been wowing crowds across Europe. Having toured with Self Esteem and supported Hinds, their live show is one of the most exciting on the circuit. With their debut EP, “Desire Paths” and a host of new songs in the set, Human Interest are some of the coolest cats, primed and ready to whip us into a frenzy.

Joining those lovely people on the bill is 5-piece alt-funk-rock-jazz outfit Duck Wax, who have been electrifying crowds since day one. No one has ever been to a Duck Wax show and not left with a smile on their face. These 5 lads will be sure to have you dancing within the first few seconds of their set!

Before that, you will have the unique opportunity to see Video Blue in a live setting. A project by Jim O'Donoghue Martin that embraces ambient electronica and guitar-driven alt-pop, Jim crafts worlds for us to fall into. Their latest album 'The Pull' was released in November '22 and is simply beautiful.

Finishing off this incredible lineup is kindaboyish. The brand new solo project of the supremely talented Paula from Chicken Picnic really has been years in the making. It's piano and vocals - for now… get down early to catch their premiere as a solo act!

Can’t wait to see you there lovelies xo

About me: I'm an artist and songwriter. I've had a love for poetry and songwriting since I was little. I've always been curious about the meaning and inspiration behind songs, which is where the idea for Stories came from. I wanted to give artists a space to share their stories and allow listeners to be in on the journey. The night is about bringing talented artists together in an intimate, quiet setting to hear the stories behind their songs.

Since emerging with the alternative indie smarts of searing debut single ‘Slip!’ in 2021, and vibrant, varied first EP ‘We Speak of Tides’ shortly after, the London-born artist Aziya has been cementing herself as a musical triple-threat. Influenced by the multiple talents of childhood hero Prince, she’s an artist with naturally powerful vocals, but also a deft and enviable mastery of her guitar and an increasingly independent grip on production. Last year also saw Aziya support the likes of Florence & Machine at the O2 Arena, as well as support tours with Nova Twins and The Vaccines. Heading into her next phase with a second project set for release later this year, she’s already carving out an ambitious space for herself where she can create with complete artistic control.
