Syd Arthur are an exciting new band from the South East of the country, at the forefront of the young musical explorers whose unique sound has been making waves far beyond their native Canterbury. Their highly eclectic sound encompasses folk, world, psychedelic, jazz, prog and rock music, showcasing original song writing, inter-weaved with instrumental freak-outs.



*******************************************************


“A melting pot of groove, soul, progressive rock, jazz and psychedelia – not to be missed!” – Furthur Productions

“Syd Arthur are one of the brightest talents in Kent. Taking their musical directions from the psychedelic leanings of Canterbury past, and throwing in some jazz style improvisation and a big slice of folk, groove and world, Syd Arthur have a unique sound that deserves a listen…” – Lounge On The Farm Festival

‘The four-piece live up to the evocative moniker, combining psychedelia, funk, folk and elements of the Canterbury sound… a glorious commotion.’ – Rock ‘n’ Reel Magazine

‘Syd Arthur fuse styles such as rock, jazz, folk and world music, creating an original sound that still ‘has its roots in all the right places.’ – Sounds New Festival

Leisure society boat
Nick Hemmings band THE LEISURE SOCIETY, famously nominated for an Ivor Novello award this year for their song "THE LAST OF THE MELTING SNOW",will be playing live in Canterbury as part of the CANTERBURY FESTIVAL. The band are also on the same label as, and share members with THE SONS OF NOEL AND ADRIAN who were so well recieved at the club earlier this year-this will be a rare oppurtunity to catch this rapidly upcoming band in a small venue.....

 In the words of the critics....

"Beautifully pastoral debut."
MOJO
****
"Wonderful"
Observer Music Monthly
****
"An autumnal mist of British Bank Holiday ennui surrounds Nick Hemming's literate meditations."
The Times
****
"Music to cuddle up to, music to clutch yourself to, music that is, as Jimmy Webb might say, necessary. This is a band that could well be the sound of 2009."
Maverick Magazine
****
"A lovingly crafted, tender folk record that will secure them as a named brand on the shelves of pop. The love affair begins."

CIRCULUS
Circulus in woods

 
 
‘British band Circulus have almost single handedly reinvented English Psychedelic Folk Rock for the 21st Century…..their sound is totally unique coming across like a mixture of medieval English Folk, Fairport Convention and Ozric Tentacles!
‘This band just leave you wanting more, playing a wonderful mix of psychedelicised folk whilst hankering to a more pastoral time, but always feel uncomfortably bang up to date. The songs are a fantastic mix of heady summer jigs & ballads, sung with a crystal clear Englishness that can make you come over all unnecessary. This is prog/folk spot on in every way, and probably the only band around who use a Crumhorn, Cittern & Rausch pfiffer????......the audience is sent home happy. Seeking medieval inspiration is not in itself new – Gryphon and Amazing Blondel spring to mind – but Circulus marry this with vintage 70’s space-rock a la Hawkwind/Gong’.
Power to the Pixies!
