Electric Jalaba
Electric Jalaba are a London based band taking Moroccan Gnawa music to a new dimension

Traditional songs about colourful spirits, mysterious women, men that divide oceans and armies of conquerors weave themselves among enormous infectious grooves, analogue effects and warped guitars.

Burning Duck Comedy – Lou Sanders: Say Hello To Your New Step-Mummy
It’s me, Loulie, AKA the face that launched a thousand dicks! In this show I’ll examine relationships (all kinds, baby), mental health (other people’s, I’m fine) and perverts (that one is mainly me, actually). I’ll be oversharing, wanging on about spirituality and giving everyone some much unwanted advice.
