LAIR + Call Me Franco
Thursday 24 July 2025
The Hope & Ruin
7:30PM - 10:30pm
LAIR (pronounced “lah-eer,” a local dialect for the Indonesian word of ‘lahir’, meaning ‘birth’ or, roughly ‘being born’) is a 6-piece psych-soul/funk outfit hailing from Jatiwangi, West Java, Indonesia.
Formed in 2018, LAIR’s music, lyrics, and its presentation are vivid, inherently gaudy (in a good way), and honest, taking a sizeable chunk of inspiration from classical/traditional Panturan Tarling, a form of now-grassroot musical/performance art popular amongst the people of a certain areas in the northern coast of West and Central Java.
Taken outside of the group’s narratives, the music and lyrics speak for themselves, describing in detail, through aural means, how it is to live on the northern shores of the island of Java. The feeling of salt in the humid air; The tiniest drop of sweat as it runs down the neck of truckers zooming down the hectic roads of Pantura; Posters of the coming election candidates plastered throughout the villages; The lingering smell of burnt fuel in the air; The garish set of stickers decorating the windshield of rundown public transports, braving every pothole with their dangerously-rickety wheels; And, most of all, the scorching heat. All lovingly communicated through the charming perspective of the locals.

L.A. Witch + Francis Pig
Thursday 25th September 2025
The Hope & Ruin
7:30PM - 10:30pm
L.A. Witch have always exuded an aura of effortless cool whether it manifested as the Americana noir and laconic back-to-basics rock n’ roll of their self-titled debut or the blistering austere adventurism of their sophomore album 'Play With Fire'. The band—comprised of Sade Sanchez (guitar/vocals) Irita Pai (bass) and Ellie English (drums)—began as an informal affair but the sultry and beguiling reverb-draped songs they created caught on with the public moving the project beyond the insular space of the band’s friends and peers in Southern California into the broader world. On their latest album ‘DOGGOD' the trio push their craft beyond their previous creative and geographical confines opting to craft the material in Paris recording the tracks at Motorbass Studio on the Rue de Martyrs.’DOGGOD' explores broader swaths of sonic terrain employs a greater arsenal of tones and probes larger existential and cosmic themes all while retaining the band’s signature sense of the forbidden the forsaken and the foreboding. ~Brian Cook

The Limiñanas+ Support
Friday 5th December 2025
Chalk
6PM - 10pm
The Limiñanas are that iconic rock couple, still driven by an unshakable desire to immerse us in their world, tinged with 60s rock and psychedelia, and infused with a cinematic aesthetic reminiscent of the golden age of Italian cinema.
For this new tour, they will be joined on stage by a top-tier lineup: Thomas Gorman (Kill the Young) on vocals, Clémence Lasme (Moodoïd, Lucie Antunes…) on bass, and Keith Streng (The Fleshtones) on guitar. Alban Barate, their loyal southern accomplice, will once again handle vintage keyboards and guitar. This dream team is set to sweep us away into a sonic, euphoric, and contagious trance!
The stage design will be enhanced by visual projections born from a collaboration with visual artist SMITH, creating a sensory bridge between psychedelic rock and cosmic poetry.

HONK+ Support
Saturday 23rd August 2025
The Oak
7:30PM - 10:30pm
Honk are a genre-warping six-piece that are here to rewire your idea of country music. It’s called “Trashcan Country" - a raucous, rough-edged twist on twang. It’s been dragged through the back alleys of punk, doused in garage-rock grit, and left to dry in the blazing sun.
At the core of Honk is their electrifying live show - equal parts hoedown and meltdown - which has earned them support slots with trailblazers like Meryl Streak, Delivery, and Being Dead, as well as consistent backing from BBC 6 Music’s Marc Riley.
With The Real Red Foley, Randy Harrison, Chubby Hellrat, Yeehaw Culhane, L.E. Steel, and Stanley Knife at the helm, Honk delivers a sound that’ll make you stomp your boots — or knock them clean off. As their debut album, One Star, prepares to drop this May on Swish Swash and chrüsimüsi Records, the buzz is building into a full-blown roar.

Midnight Rodeo + Support
Saturday 4th October 2025
The Hope & Ruin
8PM - 11pm
Nottingham formed psychedelic art-pop quintet Midnight Rodeo broke out in 2022 with 3 singles on Brighton's Fat Cat Records, accompanied by a relentless touring schedule around the UK, with trips to Europe, two sold-out hometown shows and prodigious slots at festivals such as The Great Escape, Dot to Dot & Kendal Calling. Their sound is unique in its combination of a powerful groove laden rhythm section, alongside jangly guitars, theremin-esque synths, booming organs all held together with the ethereal, honeyed vocals of frontwoman Maddy Chamberlain. Krauty & latin-esque grooves are juxtaposed with powerful psych-pop garage floor-fillers, hypnotic and chaotic in equal measure.
"A multi-faceted piece of woozy surf pop, the Morricone guitars slice through those heavenly vocals, while the heavyweight percussion surges to its grand finale." Clash
“sharp-shootin’ psych-pop” Clash
“Spongy cinematic trip…wispy surf rock” So Young

Private Function + Support
Monday 27th October 2025
Green Door Store
7:30PM - 10:30pm
A rock’n’roll band with a punk rock heart. Two-time ARIA-chart toppers. Your new favourite band.
Melbourne’s Private Function have spent the last seven years carving a reputation as one of the country’s most explosive, unpredictable and essential outfits, whose on and off-stage reputation and unhinged marketing tactics precedes them at every turn.
Fuelled by a wicked concoction of bratty quips, nostalgia-fuelled gags and an anti-authoritarian charm distilled with the majesty of rock and the pageantry of roll, Private Function’s feverish following should come as no surprise to even a casual observer, with their devotees constantly riding the PF tsunami alongside them and expediting their cult-fuelled rise to the top.
It's from way up here that the PF freak flag unequivocally stakes its claim.

Whitney K + Tasska
Tuesday 23rd September 2025
The Hope & Ruin
7:30PM - 10:30pm
Whitney K is the musical vehicle for Canadian born songwriter Konner Whitney. He is known for his agile lyricism, unpolished yet luminously resonant recordings, and a gritty baritone that balances cool detachment with profound emotional undercurrents. For years, Whitney K existed as an amorphous moving target, as restless as the man behind it.
Now the group have returned to Boguski/Halls’ makeshift home-studio in Montreal to craft their first album for Fire Records. Stripping back and pushing forward, the band is conjuring their most raw yet refined work to date—an honest, sonically paradoxical collection that finds fresh possibilities in the familiar shapes of rock, pop, and folk with the same unfiltered energy and poetic gravity Whitney K fans have come to expect.

Trip Westerns + Support
Friday 10th October 2025
Daltons
8PM - 11pm
Formed in the clearing mist of 2021, Trip Westerns are a 5 piece rock n roll / psych n soul outfit, based in Brighton with “their roots comfortably buried in the soil of mid-20th century rock and R&B, intertwined with lashings of surf and psychedelia - reveling in the twangy notes of spaghetti western soundtracks (see Ennio Morricone).” - Otis Hayes.
The band quickly built a reputation across Brighton’s scene as one of the city’s most vivid and dizzying live acts in their brief existence, twisting the town’s famous narrow cobbled streets into a Sergio Leone desert backdrop, alongside nods to sun-soaked 60’s R&B and 21st century fuzz-drenched garage rock.
Through their maniacal live set the quintet have garnered a faithful following around the UK and Europe with multiple sell out shows under their leather tooled belts as well as tours supporting Night Beats and the Nude Party across Europe.

Orions Belte + Support
Wednesday 3rd December 2025
The Hope & Ruin
7:30PM - 11pm
There are some places and moments that tie people together forever, whether it be a place, a song or something you can't quite define through words. The origins of Orions Belte stemmed from one of those mystical moments in time, which spawned a lasting creative connection. The first time all three members Øyvind, Chris and Kim met up to work on ideas they ended up recording their entire first album over a weekend together.
Orions Belte uses the band as a platform to explore different aspects of what an instrumental band can be resulting in everything from separate solo albums, live recordings from digital streams in the Norwegian nature, EP’s containing eccentric covers to studio albums that create soundscapes that pull you in and draw out emotions in ways that only they know how.
Their strong connection inspires them to write music that feels natural and authentic, focusing on strong melodies and grooves resonating with their worldwide fanbase.
Described by Atwood Magazine as "an eclectic fusion of disparate styles and exciting sounds that says what it wants to say through memorable melodies, ambient drones, and a stockpile of wicked guitar riffs."
