Canadian cosmic moon folk singer-songwriter Dana Sipos uses modest observations and matters of universal resonance as the basis for bold arrangements... joined by the hypnotic tumble of cellist Justin Wright’s strings, her idiosyncratic soprano spins tales with the epic intimacy of a deep fireside chat. Essential stuff FFO: Sam Amidon, Joan Shelley, Damien Jurado, early Sharon Van Etten. Cosmic folk / Americana.

Canadian singer-songwriter Abigail Lapell adorns Bristol with her spellbinding travelogue of spectral folk reveries, oscillating between foot stompers and classic country waltzes, while Steph Cameron rolls in with her vintage Laurel Canyon warmth. Unmissable FFO: Crazy Horse, Lucinda Williams, Cat Stevens, Rumours-era Fleetwood Mac. From the same stable as the Be Good Tanyas, Frazey Ford, etc.

Firestations offers an astral art-rock reinterpretation of blues and folk, drifting weightlessly on cosmic currents - sometimes stripped-back, sometimes spaced-out - where hushed, Jason Pierce-esque vocals are gently carried by rolling guitar lines, like a worn stone tumbling slowly downhill. Totally mesmerising FFO: Spiritualized, Maria Somerville, Grouper, William Tyler, Iron & Wine. Firestations come back to Bristol for an intimate, stripped back show. With Andy Skellam and Melinda Bronstein
