Join with us in a show of support for the people of the Ukraine and help us raise as much as we can to help its people, fleeing their homes and communities. All the money raised will be going to refugee charities and those helping in the conflict such as Disasters Emergency Committee. Hosted by the incredible band ‘The Ukrainians’ who combine traditional Ukrainian folk music with Western rock and punk.
At the heart of Plastic Mermaids is the creative force of two brothers, Douglas and Jamie Richards, sons of a Gurnard boat-builder, who approach life like an art project, putting as much love into their band’s visual concepts and staging as they have into their unique brand of psych-rock and electronica.
Mostly Autumn’s latest album ‘Graveyard Star’ released late 2021 has been very highly acclaimed and follows on from the nomination for best UK band, and best album in the Progressive Music Awards 2019.
Two drummers, electric guitars, fiddle, melodeon and 4-part harmonies combine to create music that is drenched in tradition, but filtered through a kaleidoscope of modern rock and pop. Blackbeard’s Tea Party are the go-to band for folkin’ fun shenanigans!
Come celebrate the release of their new album, ‘Kick The Curb’.
