KAPUTT are a post-punk band from Glasgow, Scotland. Numbering six, Kaputt feature Cal Donnelly on guitar and vocals, Curtis Halling on guitar, whilst Chrissy Barnacle also sings and plays saxophone. Tobias Carmichael is responsible for bass, whilst Rikki Will and Emma Smith cover drums and percussion respectively. Racing away from the playful torn edge of no-wave song, Kaputt blurt out tracks with twitchy charisma, their catchy riffs circle with relish, allowing timely sax stonks and stop-start rhythms to drive things on. Vocals leap, guitars bluster and always the saxophone snakes, hypnotically drawn through the erratic beat. There's a riot of fun at play in their febrile racket, but there's also some deeply cerebral grooves and choice lyrical concerns evident too. Upset The Rhythm released the band’s debut album ‘Carnage Hall’ and recent singles too! With a new album prepped this show is sure to be full of surprises.

CHARLÈNE DARLING lives in Paris and makes off-kilter, shimmering chanson post-punk that connects the dots between the feminist troubadours of Agnès Varda’s L’Une Chante, L’Autre Pas, Thai molam music, The Raincoats and the way Cate Le Bon slides between bucolic melody and clanging post-punk. Her debut album, Saint-Guidon, was one of 2019’s buried treasures!

SHAKE CHAIN are a 4-piece experimental group formed of artist Kate Mahony (Vocals), Joe Fergey (Drums), Robert Eyres (Guitar/Synth) and Chris Hopkins (Bass/Synth) hailing from Bournemouth, London and Oxford. Formed through a love of thought-provoking performance art and a yearning for disruption, they recorded their debut EP ‘Neil Yonge and Bob Doylan Live at Hyde Park’ in 2019 with sound artist David Carugo at Oxford Brookes University, released by Permanent Slump. Shake Chain provide a fusion of post-punk grooves, noise samples and chaotic lamenting on the current state of things. Look out for their debut album on Upset The Rhythm later this year.
