Sink or Swim present Slash Need + The Mall + Hey Budapest!
Tuesday 17 February 2026
7:30 pm - 11:00 pm
Advance £12 (+ booking fee)
The Tin At The Coal Vaults
Slash Need:

A confrontational, camp and seductive dramaturge. Toronto’s industrial performance art outfit Slash Need have earned a reputation, for putting on high-energy theatrical live performances. The group craft songs that slither, satirize, and scream.

Served up raw, Slash Need’s distinct style of propulsive techno and metallic darkwave serves as the backdrop to an unpredictable, ever-changing, and communal performance piece.

The Mall:

The Mall is music for punks who dance. In the suburban wasteland of middle America, malls exist as decaying artifacts of conspicuous consumption–forgotten tombs haunted by the ghosts of capitalism’s failures. Using sequencers and analog synths, the Mall’s Mark Plant raises the dead to get glamorous amidst decay. Fusing the shimmering, plastic qualities of 80s dance electronica with the punishing, visceral energy of midwestern hardcore, the Mall soundtracks the liminal space between beauty and anger, celebration and cynicism, resilience and destruction. Performances are as ephemeral as kisses in a movie theater in 1987–and more lethal than radiation fallout from a space probe. The Mall experience is spasming, ecstatic technical disaster.

Hey Budapest:

Sink or Swim present KEELEY + Atalhos
Thursday 19 February 2026
7:30 pm - 11:00 pm
£10 early bid | £12 adv (+ booking fee)
The Tin At The Coal Vaults
KEELEY, fronted by singer, guitarist, songwriter and enigmatic Dubliner Keeley Moss is a band brimming with songs showcasing the breadth of her songwriting. They bristle with lush harmonies, muscular beats and inventive atmospherics, weaving gleefully between indie-rock sub- genres and further establishing Keeley Moss as one of Ireland’s most creative songwriters.
In her songwriting, Keeley Moss continues her ongoing fascination with the murder and short life of teenage German backpacker Inga Maria Hauser, who was brutally murdered in Northern Ireland in 1988 and whose case remains unsolved despite many promising leads pointing to the culprits. As an authority on the subject, she recently appeared in “Murder In The Badlands”, a moving BBC documentary that further explores Inga Maria’s tragic demise, and a brand-new film centred around Keeley’s involvement with the case is in development.

The live band is currently a trio featuring Keeley Moss on guitar and vocals, Lukey Foxtrot on bass and former Morrissey drummer Andrew Paresi.

In 2024 the band is enjoying the successes of headline shows and being the tour support of choice for Echobelly, The Smyths and Miki Berenyi amongst others.

KEELEY’s new album ‘Beautiful Mysterious’ is released on October 18 2024 via Tiny Global Productions.

Atalhos:
Arriving like Brazil’s answer to The War On Drugs, Atalhos combine the reverb-rinsed touches of 80s’ Springsteen, the gentle grandiosity of Arcade Fire and the day-dreaminess guitar pop of Real Estate or Beach Fossils to create music as touching as it is timeless14+ Show (Under 18s to be accompanied by an adult)

Seb Rochford’s Finding Ways

In 2003, drummer Sebastian Rochford formed Polar Bear – a contemporary jazz group that, over the next decade, helped define a new era in British music. Their sound was bold, open-hearted, and influential, earning two Mercury Prize nominations and widespread acclaim. Since then, Seb’s distinctive voice has been heard across a broad spectrum of music, collaborating with artists including Patti Smith, Damon Albarn, Grace Jones and Brian Eno. This year he returns as a bandleader with Finding Ways, layering up to three guitars at a time around his drums and bass, the album featuring ten different guitarists. He’s joined by a remarkable set of collaborators and guests including – Tara Cunningham, David Preston and Anders Christensen – each adding something unmistakably their own and it’s this space they’re given to be themselves that defines the sound. This is honest music-making. Nothing is forced. Nothing boxed in. Finding Ways. That’s what Seb is doing—musically, emotionally, personally.

‘The Finding Ways music is about Finding Ways to keep positive and navigate the world around us’.

Central Committee presents FLESHLICKER // DEAN LLOYD ROBINSON // PALE WORLD + Y GWACTER
Saturday 7 March 2026
7:30 pm - 11:00 pm
Advance tickets: Waged £11 | Unwaged £7.70 (inc booking fee)
The Tin At The Coal Vaults

The Committee is pleased to announce a carefully curated multi-sensory evening at The Tin Saturday, 7th March 2026.

‘Skin Hunger’ takes the visceral live performance art of Fleshlicker and reimagines it for the screen.

This recontextualisation gives the viewer a peek behind the curtain at the personal fascinations that lie at the heart of the project. Like in the live setting – behind the wide eyes, wry smiles and contorted limbs – motive and meaning remain unnervingly ambiguous. This examination makes no attempt at clarity. The projector will turn on and inevitably turn back off again, but there is no beginning and no end, just the present, smothering us endlessly into the night.

The film will be accompanied by a live performance of the score.

‘Piles Of Ash Are Left In Different Places’ is a short film by Dean Lloyd Robinson.

Using the prose and imagery from the 2024 xerox zine of the same name, the film uses a mixture of manipulated digital and analog footage, along with archival home movies, to explore the theme of grief, and how navigating the world feels after loss.

The film will be accompanied by live spoken word.

Pale World’s harsh textural sound derives from Y Gwacter’s gestural painting on canvas. Each half of the duo directly influences the other in a live inter-disciplinary loop.

The performance documents itself as it unfolds.

Charles Dexter Ward turned the sands of time into a great monocle and scoured the centre of the English mud for the four Imagineers destined to confound the tongues of sound… Welcome to the dimension of Charles Dexter Ward and The Imagineers… A mystery trip of red-raw rhythm, oozing blues from the sky, bruising the complexion of your psyche with huge fuzz- laden licks and puppeteering your limbs with razor-sharp hooks as you submit to the searing echoes of Captain Beefheart wrestling Deep Purple, John Barry scoring The Stooges and John- Lee Hooker giving T-Rex scrubs.

Sink or Swim present Malin Lewis + Special Guests
Sunday 22 March 2026
7:30 pm - 11:00 pm
£12 adv (+ booking fee)
The Tin At The Coal Vaults
In a trailblazing new solo work, innovator – award winning – multi-instrumentalist Malin Lewis deep dives into a hypnotic envisioned world of ancient Scottish folk music on fiddle and a newly invented, self made bagpipe.

Exploring laments, improvisation, circular melody, jigs and reels, Malin performs an entrancing cycle of melodies that deconstruct and re-define the traditions they grew up within.

Having toured across the UK, Canada and Europe, Malin released their celebrated debut album ‘Halocline’ in May 2024 on Hudson Records. A Halocline is a visible layer that forms between salt and fresh water and is home to a unique microbial ecosystem.

Malin’s unique timbre is born from the deep connection that comes from making and composing for their own instrument. Their one of a kind two-octave Smallpipe creates a whole new world of sound, captivating audiences at every opportunity.

Inspired by the likes of Martyn Bennett, Duncan Chisholm and Sharron Shannon their music is as lively as it is thought provoking and sensitive. Recently Malin has been recording music for The Outrun starring Saoirse Ronan, composing for contemporary dance and theatre and has been learning the tradition of the extinct Finnish Bagpipes.
