NOUT are the missing chain between Nirvana and Sun Ra; the alliance between Delphine Joussein, Rafaëlle Rinaudo and Blanche Lafuente aim to push their instruments beyond their limits, with the enthusiasm of a mad scientist in front of his vials.

Flute, harp, drums: a rare combination that this French trio turns upside down.

VALHALLANS
Colchester's very own purveyors of improvised Space Swamp (apparently). No idea what Space Swamp is? Here's a link: https://valhallans.bandcamp.com/

LEE ASHCROFT
Mournful bass, synth washes and lethargic rhythms, born from anguish, leading to hope. Or: moody beats and theremin for a post-lockdown hellscape.
