Hold Your Horse Is
We are promoters based in Southampton. There are two of us. We organise nights at various venues in Southampton, Brighton, Bournemouth, and Winchester. We like music that is different and new. We take pride in introducing new acts to new audiences. We only put bands on we love, there is no point in promoting something if your heart is not in it. Defining what music we love is difficult; we have a wide taste in music, and have put on all sorts of bands, from post rock to folk, hip hop to indie, rock and electronica.
'...the scene round here has become a great deal more interesting since they came along, solely saving the local circuit from being identical to almost every other city in the UK, i.e. just a swathe of Battle of the Bands semi-finalists and IPC-friendly Libs-by-numbers outfits.' Drowned in Sound
'Picking up the torch that John Peel lit' BBC
'Ejector Seat are really good, they are one key opening for people to find out about new bands - they put on really interesting bands' Rival Joustas
Check our top friends out as some of them are playing upcoming Ejector
Seat nights, some are just great artists...
Ejector seat is almost 5 years old. And we are having an all-dayer at the Hobbit on 29th March to celebrate. For a sample of what happened at our last Birthday, watch the video below.
Hey guys, please check out the Ichi videos on my page if you're not aware of him. It's gonna be an amazing gig!
THE HAND - Banjo & kora based folky lushness ICHI - Incredible, hilarious one-man-band from Japan! LITTLE BOAT - local loop-pedal/bird-box genius Plus solo sets from Racheal and Wig of The Hand Plus! Bring a small drawing/aahtwork if you want it to be framed and swapped for someone else's in the Art Crime raffle!
I'm happy to announce that my new album "Songs From The Films Of David Lynch" is out now.
"Truly unsettling and perplexingly brilliant... testament to both the quality of Lynch’s soundtracks and Truax’s talents" - The Skinny
"Truax is paying homage to a kindred spirit with this album. It's the best kind of tribute – affectionate and respectful, but with its own quirks and imaginative leaps and its own distinct identity." -The Scotsman
what? the only event you have listed is cancelled? what? here i am, booking flights, planning visits, thinking 'well, better make ejector seat my first port of call and see when would be a good time to come'..apparently never. i'll be in touch :)
