Club Velocity/New Mind presents Kristeen Young + Strange Cities

The Facebar, Reading Chatham Street, Reading

Yves Tumor, Kate Bush, Diamanda Galas are all attempts to explain hard-to-describe, multi-genre artist, Kristeen Young. But, they are wrong. You can’t find a comparison because there isn’t one, and isn’t that a nice change? She plays piano/keyboard in a dissonant bashing style, sings using a wide range with operatic vocals, and her lyrics eviscerate in a playful way like an afternoon with a Victorian child ghost. You’ll be dead but you will have enjoyed your own life’s kill. And ….speaking of…..her new (self-produced) album, The Beauty Shop, is a song cycle based on the life of a serial killer, […]

His productions, such as 2019’s “Too Deep” and 2021’s “Faceless,” dive to the most derelict corners of foggy, […]

Kontravoid’s masked mystique has remained for over a decade. Ever since the release of his self-titled LP in 2012, the Canadian-born, Los Angeles-based Cameron Findlay has perfected dark pop with his oeuvre that teeters between the EBM, electro and goth genres. His productions, such as 2019’s “Too Deep” and 2021’s “Faceless,” dive to the most derelict corners of foggy, strobe-lit clubs: there is no choice but to dance. But there is an uncanny softness and obvious songwriting ability to compose heart-wrenching songs that are both captivating and […]

Black Doldrums + Hey Bulldog + Slab

Gullivers, Manchester 109 Oldham St, Manchester

London-based Black Doldrums revisit the Northern Quarter after a stormer of a show for Deco Records last year.  Originally a duo founded by Sophie Landers (drums) and Kevin Gibbard (guitar/vocals) they are now a fully fleshed out a trio with Matt Holt joining last year on bass, 

Black Doldrums deal in a dark, shoegazing psych that melds gothic post-punk with a leather-clad rock’n’roll spirit.

This show is expected to sell-out, so don't miss your chance to catch them in this relatively small venue.
