Saturday 8th March
6pm - 10pm
The Jam Jar, Bristol

EMBER & SENTIENT SOUND
A vibrant band born from the fertile music scene of Bristol and led by Ember, a soulful and rhythmical songstress with a deep message to spread. Bringing delectable bass lines alongside an afro-beat and hip-hop-inspired rhythm section, beautiful melodies and desert rock guitar licks that will hit the spot and make you quiver. Not one to miss if you want to get sassy and shake a tail feather!

THE ROLL-UPS
Fronted by two Powerful Women, The Roll Ups make no apologies for their raucous energy and uplifting sound. Born from the love of a wide range of musical styles and genres, they cut and paste Soul, Funk, Hip-Hop, Jazz and more to create their very own 'Junk' music that is sure to impress.
Expect the unexpected as theatrics trick and treat your ears and hips. Their songs are a reflection of all of us, from the great highs to the great lows, exploring the breadth of human discovery and, of course, love.
As well as showcasing their full set of original tunes, there may be a couple of surprises in store, truly flaunting the immense capacity for talent amongst the Women of Bristol.

MAETRIX
Maetrix knows how to keep the dancefloor moving all night with her eclectic taste for big basslines and unique, euphoric sounds. From Boomtown to Croatia and beyond, she's already making waves in the scene. She's played at some major festivals, and one thing's for sure—she'll have you shakin’ your hips and moving to the beat from start to finish.

Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
