Dead Days Beyond Help
The amazing multi-talents of Mr Alex J Ward (Guilliemots and much, much more) team-up with drummer, Jem
Doulton, to reach a petit mort of mad intensity with their
modern love moniker, Dead Days Beyond Help.
In their own words: "A guitarist and a drummer, following
their whims. (One of the guitarist's more frequent whims is
singing - the drummer tends to show a bit more self-control
in that regard, though not when he's playing in some of his
other bands.)
"Having strenuously avoided anything with a prog or math
taint since the demise in 2001 of his previous band Camp
Blackfoot, with this material he once again allowed himself
to explore (though not fixate upon) overt structural
complexity."
We say: A treat for the senses!"

Brainville
Desperados
 Coming
from Germany as part of the ambitious "Week of Small
Miracles" mini-fest, the Brainville Desperados are one of
those beautifully indefinable bands that just happen and
find their way to a place like Calmer*.
Brainville Desperado’s feature contrabass clarinettist Ove
Volquartz (Gottingen), percussionist Christian Dreher (Gottingen)
and guitarist Andreas Duker (Gottingen) performing
improvised music inspired by Sun Ra.
We are more than happy to offer up our welcoming smiles and
clapping hands
for an evening of excellent improv and more...
"...Ooh!..."
