The Hazytones is a stoner rock band founded in 2015 in Montreal.
Psych/Doom/Stoner Metallers The Hazytones return with Wild Fever which is their first new album in over six years. The record sees the band become more destructive, aggressive and heavier compared to their previous albums. Wild Fever is full of passionate 1970’s Hard Rock sounds and seedy Fuzzy Psychedelics which merges the street level style of Doom/Stoner Metal which is heard throughout the record.
Support from Superhooch + Analogue Man

NAP EYES + ELIZA NIEMI followed by Kitchen Club Indie Disco (Doors 10.00pm)
After three years of silence, the Canadian band Nap Eyes have returned with their own meditations on the monstrous and familiar (or the monstrously familiar). The Neon Gate, their metamorphic fifth long-player, collects a cache of nine fascinating reveries recorded over the four years since their last album, Snapshot of a Beginner(five of which were released episodically throughout the spring and summer of 2024). “I See Phantoms of Hatred and of the Heart’s Fullness and of the Coming Emptiness,” the album’s colossal penultimate track, is, along with “Demons,” their languorous adaptation of a phantasmagorical poem by Russian Romantic Alexander Pushkin (1799–1837), one of two ambitious but adept adaptations in which singer and principal songwriter Nigel Chapman unravels knotty, century-old verse into a fluid, memorable melodies across the loom of the band’s pulsing instrumental syncretism.
For free entry to club night please select the correct ticket.

This fresh engagement with narrative and lyric formality complements the seven original songs on the record, which reveal classic Naps touchstones (the uneasy interplay of physics and philosophy, the nexus of fantasy and science fiction, perambulatory descriptions of landscape and weather, self-interrogating soliloquies, apertures of surreality, technological anxiety, video games), but also evidence of divergent impulses toward nonlinear abstraction and longform improvisational composition (resulting in their most discursive, deconstructed, and deliquescent songs to date). With The Neon Gate Nap Eyes have transmuted, as has their understanding of what a song is, what it can do, where it might go.
Eliza Niemi
On Progress Bakery, her second album as a solo artist, Eliza knows to leave some questions alone – to let juxtaposition and tension be the proof. It doesn’t have to be hard. The feelings and revelations they provoke rise in the heat. The smell is sweet. Crispy on the outside and soft all the way through. She playfully slip-slides through words and sounds and images, delighting in surprise, skimming ideas like stones cast across clear water, touching down briefly with uncommon grace.

Sink or Swim present The Deep Dark Woods (Solo) + Austin Stambaugh
Sunday 11 May 20257:30 pm - 11:00 pm
£14 Adv (+ BF) The Tin At The Coal Vaults
One might be tempted to think of the Deep Dark Woods as a band steeped in capital T tradition, and that may be true, but now nearly two decades into their life as one of Canada’s finest folk roots ensembles, that tradition is one of their own invention. The voice of founding member Ryan Boldt sits at the forefront of the band, and it doesn’t take long to reveal that he is a master of subtlety and shading, working in the lineage of iconic singers like Bob Dylan, Bert Jansch, Rick Danko, and Jason Molina.
Originally from north east Ohio, but now located to Nashville, this is the folk/country balladeer & songster Austin Stambaugh first UK visit. A modern pioneer of folk storytelling, his work has been called “timeless and nuanced,” by Lilly Hiatt &” the best flat picking songwriter you’ve never heard of ” by folk singer Tim Easton.
Stambaugh’s aesthetic is timeless standards, and terrifying compositions that hold a listener in suspense. “Austin Stambaugh tells true American stories with the power of Kerouac and the wonder of Huck
Finn.” – Americana UK .

Sink or Swim presents Lucy Kruger & The Lost Boys + Leave Your Body Behind + Those Amongst Us Are Wolves
Thursday 15 May 20257:30 pm - 11:00 pm
£10 Adv (+ BF) The Tin At The Coal Vaults
Lucy Kruger & The Lost Boys, a Berlin-based art-pop and tender noise ensemble, have captivated audiences across Europe with their atmospheric and intense performances. Led by South African-born artist Lucy Kruger (guitar and vocals) and featuring Liú Mottes (guitar), Jean-Louise Parker (viola and vocals), Gidon Carmel (drums), and Reuben Kemp (bass), the band’s music is both intimate and angular—droning and dream-like in moments, driving, direct, and on the edge of desperation in others. Caringly confrontational.
For fans of PJ Harvey, Blonde Redhead, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Sonic Youth, Cate Le Bon.

Snapped Ankles outsider status has always allowed them to hold a mirror up to society. Now the boundaries are not so clear. In the years since Come Play The Trees was released, their cult has flourished. Their album Stunning Luxury saw the band invited to play the BBC 6 Music Festival and a KEXP session on the back of a sold-out UK tour which culminated with two nights at Village Underground in London. As those who have witnessed the shamanic ritual of their live shows will attest, they are a truly unique, communal experience.

Singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Jack Francis’ second album ‘Early Retirement’ is another example of his impressive work. Shining a spotlight on Francis’ unique brand of Soulful Folk, ‘Early Retirement’ explores a broad range of influences, touching on great British, Irish and American songwriting. The lyrical content demonstrates the writer’s acerbic wit and attention to detail and compounds his experience navigating modern society and fallen dreams. The singles have already been picked up on national radio and have been championed by the likes of BBC Radio 2 and BBC Radio Scotland. Jack’s reputation as a stunning live performer has also put him in good company, opening for the likes of Flyte, Miles Hunt and Courtney Marie Andrews to name a couple, whilst also appearing at several festivals across the UK and Europe.

£9adv | £7 concession (+ booking fee) The Tin At The Coal Vaults
In a world where political expression in pop is often either loud and angry or non-
existent, there is a need for nuance; preferably in the form of strong FLINTA voices
that point out current grievances with a cool head and thus initiate change. Eilis
Frawley achieves this feat with razor-sharp precision, while at the same time taking a
playful and experimental, subtle look at her surroundings and inviting listeners into her
very personal, wonderfully intentional-sounding emotional world.

DEAFDEAFDEAF – Independent “Post-Something” Band from Greater Manchester – ‘Disarming shoegaze, raucous, feedback-laced post-punk that rings out with the echoes of DEAFDEAFDEAF’s Mancunian forebears.’ ‘A mile away from the average indie b*llocks and a marker for the Next Next Wave. DEAFDEAFDEAF cement their place in the rich vaults of Manc music with their own twist of subnormal soundscapes.’ – Louder Than War.
City Dog – Brighton Grunge Punk Trio – At just 17 years old, City Dog quickly made a name for themselves in the local music scene, becoming known for “turning a mosh pit into an absolute frenzy” at their own sold-out shows. By 18, they had already shared stages with legendary acts like the Buzzcocks, Bob Vylan, and The Wytches, and joined Surfbort on their European tour. City dog have since smashed out UK and eu headline tours.
