Don Kapot
Catchy melodies and an infectious groove are the common thread running through this mass of demolition of genre boundaries. This punishingly innovative trio offers a spirited, slightly humorous blend of modern jazz and krautrock with joyously deranged samples.
Bassist-guitarist Giotis Damianidis, saxophonist-flutist-keyboardist Viktor Perdieus and drummer Jakob Warmenbol have been proving since 2018 that they have talent to spare and, as co-writers, know well enough what they want to make.
Their last album "I Love Tempo" has been mixed and co-produced by Greg Saunier.

Frolic Acid
With heavy riffs, angular grooves, explorative solos and surreal lyrics, Frolic Acid is a new collaborative project comprising of Katy Trigger (Backyard Rhythm Orchestra, MSK) on bass and vocals, Evan Abel (Baghdaddies) on saxes and melodica, and Nik Alevroyiannis (Baghdaddies) on kit and percussion. Taking inspiration from the worlds of prog, jazz and Latin (among many others), their sound is infused with distortion and a touch of raw aggression, for a dynamic and eclectic sonic experience.

More about FRESH Thursdays...
FRESH happens every Thursday during our open seasons. It is a platform to bring you fresh new music served up alongside a homecooked plant based meal, board games and candles. It can be hard to get people out to hear music that they don’t know yet & this is why we decided to offer dinner as an incentive to try something new, these gigs are cosy, communal nights and often you get to hear completely new music for the very first time.
The music varies across multiple genres but it is usually fairly gentle listening type music & well suited to a relaxed Thursday night. The gigs are seated and during the sets the audience is very music focused & quiet with time to chat in between the sets and at the end when we keep the bar open.
We cook the food from scratch usually and dinner is well suited to lover of vegetables and wholesome cooking, it's usually something like a dhal, veggie chilli, tacos, roast veg or similar, our base line is vegan sometimes with veggie options. We can cater for nut/gluten free meals, but nuts & gluten are used in the kitchen so if you have serious allergies please bear that in mind.
Doors at 7pm, we aim to get dinner ready by 8pm and will bring it to you when its ready… music usually starts around 8pm, sometimes later if it’s a busy night for food (we are a tiny team) and we aim to have the music finished by 10-10.15 pm. We can only guarantee dinner with advance tickets and these days we cap dinner at 60 meals and the food tickets do often sell out.
We hope/think it's obvious that quality music and dinner for £10 is all about culture & community and that these events cost us money… If you can afford to purchase a higher level ‘Cobalt supporters‘ ticket we appreciate the additional help towards costs very much.
