FLIGHTS OF HELIOS AT THE MIDNIGHT RIYAZ
Live EP: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/flightsofhelios/flights-of-helios-at-the-midnight-riyaz
“Space truckers Flights of Helios are trapped in a parallel world without their beloved, garrulous drummer JC. All around is mirage and mystery. Stopping in a deep-blue tiled bar for a settling libation, they meet a shamanic figure, a caravan of one, hauling his percussion trunk of wonders. A jam, you say? ... and the music flows like hookah smoke, enveloping all their concerns. But will they ever find their way home?
This is Flights of Helios at the Midnight Riyaz.”
FOHMR bring their tabla-driven acoustic psychedelia direct from the Green Gathering and SeptemberSong festivals.
WEDNESDAY'S WOLVES
https://www.wednesdayswolves.com/
Wednesday's Wolves are a female contemporary folk duo who use simple guitar riffs and vocal harmonies combined with percussive instruments to create emotive and evocative music, usually with a melancholic edge.
“I can honestly say that I have never been un-expectedly blown away so much by the next song I heard which started a set by a new duo called Wednesday Wolves…. The haunting melodies that oozed from this unassuming duo just echoed around the 12 Bar Club like rousing ancient hymns” – Music Earth Rise
KHAIRIKA
https://linktr.ee/khairika
Khairika is a versatile artist blending storytelling with her own mix of pop rock and country influences. New to the Oxford music scene, she quickly started garnering interest among audiences at local open mics and her solo performance at the Cape of Good Hope.
In this performance, Khairika will perform tracks from her upcoming album “It’s All Lies, Darling”, a deeply personal project inspired by her recent journey through a challenging relationship. What started as a one off song turned into a year-long process of healing through songwriting. The album, split into two EPs, explores vulnerability, betrayal, self-discovery, and empowerment, with acoustic melodies and poignant lyrics that resonate with anyone who has faced difficult relationships and personal growth.
