YOUNG MARTYRS (Duo) + Jol Rose

Forming in 2020 with the release of their self titled debut album, Young Martyrs have become one of the most respected artists on the UK independent music scene. Breaking out initially as a name in alt-country and Americana space, they’ve grown to make a name for themselves across indie and rock audiences.
In the last few years, the band have played festivals across the UK, including Glastonbury, and performed with the likes of Badly Drawn Boy, The Hooziers and McFly. Their first UK headline tour in support of second album ’Time is Not On Our Side’ finished with sellout shows and the band are currently working on their third full length release.
Sadly the originally billed support, Ben Francis, can’t be with us so instead we will be warmed up by local legend Jol Rose.

Aiden Kelseo + Rodrigo Francalacci

Aiden Kelseo is a guitar-driven music project built on classic rock instincts, infectious melodies, and a healthy dose of self-deprecating humour. His songs wrestle openly with contradiction, uncertainty, and the quiet absurdity of existence — but always with a grin, a hook you can’t shake, and the warmth that only comes from real humans playing real instruments.
Expect tunes that invite you to laugh or cry (or both), sharp banter between songs, and a shared agreement to enjoy the ride while we’re here — this strange little simulation included. For Kelseo, if you’re not finding joy in the uncertainty, what’s the point?
Based in Bristol since arriving from New Zealand in 2019 — armed with his partner, a Les Paul, and a stubbornly optimistic dream — Aiden brings a sound shaped by classic rock and modern melody, delivered with unending catchiness and heartfelt honesty. If you’ve ever wondered about the accent, that’ll be the Southern Hemisphere shining through.
Time: 8:30pm
