Chris T-T
CHRIS
T-T is not one to keep his opinions to himself; this
articulation often results in audience members being
offended, outraged or otherwise aghast. He’s received
earfuls from angry old ladies in hunting villages, indie
crowds in Essex and a few
outraged liberals at the Leftfield stage during the
Glastonbury Festival. He must be doing something right.
With his past two albums, the first two parts of the London
Trilogy ‘The 253’ (2001) and ‘London Is Sinking’ (2003), as
well as overtly political mini-album ‘9 Red Songs’ (2005),
Chris T-T has tackled life's grand themes of war, money,
politics, love, sex, and death, and has transformed them
into highly personal and highly emotional songs, championed
by everyone from NME to Rolling Stone, from Radio 1 to Radio
3, and 6Music.
"The genius of Chris T-T's songwriting is his ability to
humanise even the most outlandish conceits. They seem
instead like brilliant ideas that no-one else could've come
up with..." The Guardian

Sam Holmes
Cheltenham
based singer, Sam Holmes, is equally at home fronting her
band at the Cropredy Festival or, as in this case, singing
intimate solo sets with the aid of an acoustic guitar.
Her songs are "filled with tenderness,
poignancy and a beautiful frailty" and excellently delivered
with cool, angelic, vocals.
"...delicate, romantic songs, perfect in
their simplicity and melody..." musicOHM.com

Jim Lockey
Another
locally based performer, Jim sings articulate and
intelligent songs of pure power and honesty - resonantly
resonated through his resonator guitar.
Having made his name with thehollah, Jim is
now making his solo Calmer* debut tonight and we are really
pleased to have him... I'm sure you're all going to love
this set too!
"...f**king excellent..."
