Thursday 16th August
Fire Tower 4 + guests Izzy Brittain and Jozef
Entry by donation – suggested £5
Doors open 7.30pm – tickets available on the door
With a sound that shifts and gently mutates over time, each FT4 gig evolves through the interaction between musicians in an act of instant composition Moving between psychedelia, kraut rock, proto hip-hop and soulful jazz, no two Fire Tower 4 performances are the same. Performances are often collaborations involving specially invited musicians and singers, but also artists from other fields including spoken word, contemporary dance and video art.
Expect driving beats, haunting melodies and hypnotic dream-scaped flows, created in the moment and never to be repeated.
Izzy Brittain
Izzy Brittain is a ranter, chanter and freedom dancer, who performs a cut-and-paste mixture of theatre, dance & spoken word in fields, theatres, pubs and community halls across the country. She will join us for a spoken word set spanning many topics, from bikes, borders & bees to revolutionary women, wonky utopias and witch clubs! Expect acts of creative resistance and collective joy, and the odd exuberant dance move thrown in for good measure.
Jozef
A fresh voice hailing from the North, Jozef has taken his influences from indie, folk and hip-hop. These three genres have politely asked for them to be returned on several occasions, but as yet, no response has been forthcoming. With lyrics that veer from romantic idealism to bizarre juxtaposition, delivered via catchy-as-owt melodies and an effortlessly alluring vocal style, Jozef is as beguiling/surprising as a razor blade in a Jaffa Cake.
DJs Chaka and Spice to keep the music flowing all night.
