SHOVEL DANCE COLLECTIVE
Shovel Dance Collective are a group of nine musicians brought together by a communal passion for the folk music of the British Isles, Ireland and beyond.

They nurture and synthesise this material with sensibilities drawn from drone, free improvisation, contemporary classical and metal, weaving this through with a deep sense of the ways in which traditional music holds queer histories, proto-feminist narratives and the voices of those who by their labour create the wealth of the world. The group favours instruments that conjure a deeper and stranger antiquity; hammered dulcimer, bowed cittern, mountain banjo, pump organ. They are simultaneously traditional and experimental, seeing folk music not as an archaeological artefact to be unearthed, but as a living communal activity, inviting and generous to those it speaks to.

ABLE NOISE
The cryptically-named Able Noise are a baritone guitar and drums duo inconveniently based based between The Hague, and Athens. Originally a strictly live-only concern, they have since moved on to commit a collection of vehemently non-rock synecdoches to tape, cramming in atypical technique, loops and fragments of external sounds, and ghosts of songs past. Still they retain a commitment to attendant performance, taking pre-existing pieces and reshaping them in the context of the space to create something remorselessly new with each appearance.
