SEALIONWOMAN

Sealionwoman is Kitty Whitelaw (Vocals) and Tye McGivern (Double Bass) – a musical partnership born from the cacophonous jazz-racket of Kitty and the Drowning Bag, a London-based power-trio featuring John Tillyer on drums. Their first incarnation fell dormant when Kitty ran off to join the circus in Singapore, but Kitty and Tye were reunited for a one-off performance in 2011. Galvanised by the response, they reformed, relocated to the city and spent seven years honing their utterly extraordinary sound, with live shows supporting artists as diverse as Tanya Tagaq and Bohren & der Club of Gore, before they were finally ready to commit five songs to vinyl for their debut album, Siren.

"Sealionwoman’s music flips folk music on its head, taking traditional Scottish music and moving it into a darker, more atmospheric direction." The Quietus

CHOP CHOP
https://chopchopsounds.bandcamp.com/

Chop Chop will present a spontaneous, largely improvised set, exploring some more electronic territory than usual.

“An uncompromising foray from the Peel tradition of yore to who knows where. Jazz-punk tinges, feverish poetry and Fall-ish clangour wrestle down the stairs here in search of new constructions at the floor” - Supernormal festival

“A powerful musical brew of experimental funk, post-punk klang and swampy drones” - Bleeding Hearts Club

DRILL FOLLY
https://soundcloud.com/drillfolly

"Drill Folly is the electronic project of Tantrums' digital mastermind Sarah Phelan. Taking a twisting path around the spidery legs of IDM, Phelan's solo material is a far darker proposition than her band's indie rock output. Deep industrial percussion sits atop heavy sound art textures and a menacing sense of abstracted melody. It's like listening to what might be going through the head of one of the virtual reality junkies in Strange Days whose mind has been cooked by too much cerebral playback." THUMP
