Foot Foot
+ Sunglasz Vendor, Velvetine, Swelt
"In the vanguard of the emerging Bristol underground scene, Foot Foot have drawn on the traditions of folk, math-rock, & discordant post-rock to produce their intricate brand of songcraft, creating moments of serenity & stillness before launching into fast, jagged rhythms. Their use of contrasts -indie-flecked songwriting with irregular, winding passages, or rich violin & vocal melodies with avante--jazz freakouts - have marked them out as one of the scene's most innovative & impactful live acts."
Formed from Bristol's avant-garde underground (Bingo Fury, Ex Agent, Grandchild), Sunglasz Vendor sees devout experimentalists embrace the eternal comforts of rock radio hooks, pensive emo, and Kerrang! teenage angst.
Velvetine are a London-based alternative band. They blend their various influences of post-punk, shoegaze, goth and art-rock, together with cinematic soundscapes into gloomy dream rock.
Weaving tapestries of sparse, melancholic compositions, swelt meld influences of folk, slowcore and post-rock. The four-piece, composed of members of Talons, Repo Man and Iceman Furniss Quintet, formed in Bristol in 2020.
