fran rodgers

Born in 1982 to an English father and a French mother, Fran Rodgers was raised with her twin sister in an old mining town in Nottinghamshire. Hours spent listening to her parents records inspired a love of Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and, later, the likes of Nick Drake, Nick Cave and Jeff Buckley. Following a move to Leeds in 2000 Fran discovered a passion for singing and, self-taught on the guitar, she began to write. Like many of her influences she performs alone, transporting the listener into the fragile world she paints of love, loss and hope.

Erin K & Tash

Erin K is Erin Kleh and last November she picked up the Spanish guitar her father bought her years ago (but never learned to play) and began writing some very unusual music. She recorded these songs in her bedroom with the aid of a very nice Macbook built-in microphone, a sunglass case full of change, and a cardboard box drum-kit. One day her friend Antony (the subject of her song "Sorry I'm Not Black") told her that the songs were pretty great and that she should play them live up on stage so other people could hear them.

The Martin Harley Band

Martin Harley is a mesmerizing singer/songwriter whose original sound draws on influences from old time blues and folk to world music to create songs that sound so familiar you think you’ve grown up with them. Songs about living in cars, worn out shoes, girls lost in the carnival lights, satellite hunting in car parks and a constant sense wondering are recurring themes in Martins music. His original approach to playing slide guitar across his lap and his accomplished finger style playing are the cornerstone of the music along with his whiskey soaked northern breeze vocals.
