Roxy Rawson

ROXY RAWSON… plus special guests WILLIAM NEIN + THE 150 FRIENDS CLUB

‘Like Tom’s Diner crossed with Nellie McKay. Gorgeous minimal percussion and her joy shine bright. You can’t help but revel in the creativity of Ms Rawson’s occasionally wild, sometimes tender composition’ – Planet Sound

Hitchin-raised ROXY RAWSON, compared to Joanna Newsom and Regina Spektor by the Independent On Sunday as much we suspect for her leaping, swooping, occasionally properly falsetto vocals, is a conservatoire trained violinist… she can conjure plucked intimacy and soaring grandiosity within the space of this one song. Eccentric, to a degree, but also spellbinding’ Sweeping the Nation

Falling squarely into the anti-folk category by way of a manipulated, punk-y violin, Roxy Rawson has been a cult presence on the San Francisco and London music scenes with her unique blend of impish violin vocals and classical/ jazz influence. Returning to performing in London after a hiatus, she is debuting new material from her forthcoming album.

WILLIAM NEIN:
Returning to the London-scene for the first time in 6 years William Nein will be playing a stripped-down acoustic set celebrating the release of his newest single ‘Lay Your Arms Down’.
“Nein is a musician whose songs are evocative of fleeting emotions; beautifully capturing something
that is slowly slipping away whether it’s a person, thing, or emotion.” – Frostclick

THE 150 FRIENDS CLUB:

The 150 Friends Club is a Chamber Rock group based in London. They have released two EPs and an album called Monogamy. They have just finished recording their sophomore album Preach which is coming out at the end of the year (preview here).
