9.50pm - JOSH FLOWERS & THE WILD
https://www.facebook.com/JFandTW
Headliners, JOSH FLOWERS & THE WILD, infuse searing blues vocals with organic folk musicality, and raw rock and roll sensibilities. The London-based five-piece are fronted by esoteric frontman Josh Flowers, whose evocative lyrics and bucolic image organically compliment the rustic quality of band's inimitable ingenuity and sound.
JOSH FLOWERS & THE WILD'S high energy live performances grip audiences with sumptuous vocal harmonies, permeated by Josh's transition from passive, opulent folk-inspired tones to a blues-ridden, blistering growl. Josh's multi-faceted musicality is effortlessly complimented, and mirrored by the inspired musicianship alongside him. The result is a flawlessly in-tune performance, both aurally and visually, that feels as fluently natural as it does scrupulously rehearsed.
"Amazing vocals, contagious beats and a mischievous set full of fun and enjoyment. Josh Flowers & The Wild clearly love what they do, and they aren't the only ones. Josh Flowers & The Wild had the crowd in a folk induced frenzy." The Grapevine Music
9.10pm - LLOYD YATES
https://www.facebook.com/LloydYatesMusic
Main support comes from `LLOYD YATES'. He's been compared to such artists as CAT STEVENS, RAY LAMONTAGNE, PASSENGER, JOHN BUTLER, BEN HOWARD, BON IVER and many others too, however most people usually agree that Lloyd's voice is totally unique.
Completely self-taught, and perhaps a little unorthodox, `LLOYD YATES' picked up a guitar at 15 after his Sister left one at home. His songs are beautifully crafted with open-hearted honesty and strength. He invites his audience to experience all of his feelings and emotions. In Jersey, Lloyd has grown an impressive fan base, and a popularity that is spreading since moving to London in October 2012 and has already seen him chosen to play festivals featuring top international artists such as BEN HOWARD, NEWTON FAULKNER & VAN MORRISON. Lloyd has already been booked to support THE STAVES, XAVIER RUDD, BENJAMIN FRANCIS.
Lloyd has signed a publishing deal as a songwriter with EMI Music Publishing/Sony ATV and 2013 has seen Lloyd selected to support JAMIE CULLUM, live performances for BBC London and at Hyde Park for BBC Radio 2, national airplay on BBC Radio one & Radio two, with a Radio One live session recorded at Maida Vale aired in December.
"The next artiste Lloyd Yates is from Jersey and, he's got an excellent beard too! If you like Ben Howard I think you're going to love this guy, and there's a little bit of the Bon Iver's about him too. This is one of his many records that's just come into my inbox, it's called 'Bring Back the Life' and I'm loving it " - Rob da Bank, BBC Radio 1
"That song could be an earworm, getting into your head - and not going away" - Alex Lester, BBC Radio 2
"This song is delicious" (Runs Like Fire) - Fearne Cotton, BBC Radio 1
"What a phenomenally different voice he has" - Eddie Temple-Morris, XFM Radio London
"It's a completely unique sound, what he came out with in the studio completely blew us away. He's an incredible talent who we expect to do great things" - Gavin Harris - Loadstar
8.30pm - STOKES WILLIAM
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Stokes-William/205882400959
STOKES WILLIAM initially came into prominence through the West London folk scene, making their live debut with Communion before recording a session with members of MUMFORD & SONS and BEAR'S DEN; appearing on the Communion Compilation alongside Johnny Flynn, Elena Tonra (DAUGHTER) and MATTHEW AND THE ATLAS. Since the release of their acclaimed debut EP they have continued to tour and gain recognition across London, the UK and the United States.
7.50pm - CASSIUS CLAYE & THE YOUNGBLOODS
https://www.facebook.com/aidanbenjaminconnell
CASSIUS CLAYE & THE YOUNGBLOODS pushes blues, soul, rock, psychedelia and guitar mastery into a whole new dimension while the unpretentious striped back approach reminds the world of the power of minimalism. Although the influence of classic blues artists such as Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf are obvious as well as the 60's super group schtick reinterprets the well worn blues rock genre with a fresh approach and much needed urgency.
''Reinventing the heyday of the Blues Rock power trio in the mould of Cream and Hendrix''.
Moray Stuart(Blues In Britain Sept 2013)
