The Spring Sha La! 19 April 2024

Gary Morris

GaryMorris Co-founder of the character-cabaret team 'Slaughterhouse Live', Gary Morris has been performing character comedy for over 20 years with creations such as children's author Beryl Haines, War Poet 2nd Lieutenant Walter Melons and PowerPoint-crazed lifestyle guru Dave Media. Described by The List as "pulsating with enough anarchic energy to power a small European principality."

Chris Tavener

ChrisTavener Jangly-guitar rock and a biting sense of humour meet in the storytelling songs of Chris Tavener. A theatrical musician with an acerbic wit, Tavener writes his lyrics from the perspective of flawed characters that he draws from 21st century life. His cynical social commentary, dressed in punchy guitar-driven rock and acoustic ballads has won him acclaim from BBC 6 Music and multiple BBC Introducing stations.

Klosh

Klosh Genre-bending outliers, Klosh occupy a space somewhere between avant-garde, pop and electronic dance music. Their twisted beats, wonky synths and feminist lyrics combine to move body and mind in surprising and visceral ways. If Tuneyards & Self Esteem had a baby, it might sound a bit like this!

Brandon Lee Webb

BrandonLeeWebb British songsmith Brandon Lee Webb will be joined by Dan Brownrigg on guitars and Michael Holcroft on percussion. Their blend of electric/acoustic blues rock is a little more Kelly Joe Phelps than it is Mississippi John Hurt, throw in a touch of John Martyn and a dab of The Doors and you’re getting close. Expect passionate, powerful vocals, soaring slide lines and smooth melodic bass. www.brandonleewebb.co.uk for more.
