Our host and curator of “Soundings”, ELANOR MOSS will play a set of her own songs, each of them new or works in process. Elanor is a folk songwriter from Lincolnshire, writing tender observations on the world, with a keen eye for the intimate details that make up our every day life. Taking inspiration from artists such as Judee Sill and Bridget St John to Fiona Apple, her songs are little vignettes as timeless as they are timely. Featuring on lineups including Green Man Festival to London Pitchfork Festival, with BBC6 playlisting, and opening for artists such as Christian Lee Hutson and CMAT, Elanor has become one to watch on the UK songwriting scene.

This month, join us for a deep listening experience with…
For fans of Simon and Garfunkel, The Beatles, and Laura Marling, this month’s secret guest is a London-based songwriting duo. Growing up with parents who were both English teachers inevitably meant that various literary influences trickled into the duo’s music- the band taking its name from Evelyn Waugh’s Brideshead Revisited.
After the release of three critically acclaimed albums, they have established themselves as an influential mainstay.After extensive touring of Europe and North America, they have teamed back up with Andrew Sarlo, this time at London’s famous Konk Studios, to record their most confident and collaborative work to date. The latest self-titled album, inspired by a relationship with partner and artist Billie, explores love in all its early forms and features artists such as Laura Marling, Bombay Bicycle Club, and M Field.

They are currently rolling out beautiful new recordings from their fourth album, recorded with Ethan Johns (Laura Marling, Rufus Wainwright).

Their first album was recorded with Burke Reid (Julia Jacklin, Courtney Barnett) in the Australian outback, explored the ways in which people struggle to process love. The albums’ crafted storytelling and ambitious, harmonic arrangements earned it the title ‘Best British debut of the year’ from the Sunday Times.

Second album (2021), took them out to Los Angeles to work with collaborator Andrew Sarlo (Big Thief, Bon Iver). Seeing the sound move into a more simplistic and confessional mode, focusing entirely on the aftermath of relationships ending.

Doors open 7pm. Music starts 8pm. The venue is mixed seated and standing. Tables are limited and available on a first come first served basis so, if you’d like a seat, we recommend arriving early!
