every gig · every venue
Santa Carla/ Matt Sewell/ Pasteboard Masks/ Ady Davey

We were forced to cancel our planned Gappy Tooth gig on this night, because of venue unavailability, but instead we've concocted a fun alternative at Master Rhythm a rehearsal and recording studio in Templars Square, Cowley. For a very small price a select group can enjoy the sounds of
Possibly vampiric goth-pop from Santa Carla Literate psych folk from Charms Against The Evil Eye's Matt Sewell The artistic, oddball songs of Pasteboard Masks The avuncular bluesy presence of East Oxford legend Ady Davey
There'll also be a little bar for tinnies, to maintain the house party vibe.
Doors 19.45, music from 20.00. Entry is on Pound Way - staff will be on hand to give you access to Templars Square, and take you upstairs to the venue.
