Bio
Come and see us play, book us a gig. Get involved or stand at the back. Cover us in beer or shower us in glory. We'll play anywhere. We'll need an electrical supply and money for diesel. PLEASE CONTACT MATTHEWDAVIDCARGILL @ HOTMAIL.COM FOR BOOKING ENQUIRIES Help us help you. Love sly x "This was one of the most unique performances we've seen in a while. Utilising a three person drum kit and speaker stack, Sly & The Family Drone reduce music to it's bare essentials, a primal orchestra of drum rhythms and drone noise. Their reductionist take on music is literal, they split their drum kit to it's singular base units, passing individual drums and snares to the audience who maintain the beat while they free themselves for more noise and freestyle mayhem. Their show unfolds like a temporal art narrative on entropy. In the beginning they start physically in space as a tight musical unit of drums and speakers, a high pitched whine fills the air, layers of noise and distorted vocals slowly fill the room and the percussion starts to find it's beat. Then they beat the rhythms structured and regular seemingly into forever, until, eventually everything starts to breakdown into chaos and noise. By the end of their set their drums and equipment are scattered, the remains of their music lying bare across the floor." pixadelica 2009 We now have t shirts available for sale!

JAILBREAK is the duo of pedal steel/vocalist Heather Leigh Murray and
drummer Chris Corsano. They
play improvised music that dispenses with traditional notions of call
and response or dialogue in favour of a simultaneity that takes instant forms from the application of high energy strategies.
COLLIDER is the unconventionally noisy
quartet from Leeds Improvised Music Association stalwarts; Matthew
Bourne (keys), Dave Kane (electric and double bass), Chris Sharkey
(guitar) & Chris Bussey (drums). Collider apply their profound
understanding of improvisatory practice in rendering a sonic maelsrom
that values inimical volume over all else.
ISAMBARD KHROUSTALIOV is the solo alias of Sam Britton, also of electronic group Icarus and live improv trio Leverton Fox. Sam creates immersive textural
narratives which are immediately abrasive, and simultaneously
indicative of longer, more graceful structures.
