The Amber List + ZvilnikLive at Chew’s Yard, Preston
Friday 28th November
Doors: 8:30 PM
Tickets: £5 + booking fee via Skiddle
The Amber List hail from Preston, Lancashire and deliver a classic, guitar-driven indie sound, rich in melody, harmonies, and shimmering atmospheres.
Frequently compared to Doves, R.E.M., and Echo & the Bunnymen, their music blends thoughtful songwriting with a widescreen sonic palette. The three members have a strong musical pedigree, with past releases on Virgin and Action Records, and support slots for The Stone Roses, Gene, Hard-Fi, The Saw Doctors and Bronski Beat. Their recent nomination for Best Indie Band by a major internet radio station and permanent rotation on global indie channels proves they’re more than a throwback — they’re a band firmly rooted in quality and craft. The Amber List make serious music for discerning listeners.
Mick Shepherd – Lead vocals, bass
Tony Cornwell – Guitars, backing vocals, atmospherics, racket
Simon Dewhurst – Drums, percussion, backing vocals
Joining them are Zvilnik, a sci-fi soaked art rock duo with a love for robots, sentient bombs, and interdimensional chaos. Drawing influence from Asimov, Philip K. Dick, and cult films like John Carpenter’s Dark Star, Zvilnik are equal parts theatrical, philosophical, and loud.
Their background is as eclectic as their sound — raised on Broadway musicals, 2000AD comics, and distortion pedals, they mix serious subject matter with playful, high-concept lyrics. Expect songs about the Stanford Prison Experiment, questionable science, and the occasional monstrous entity. It’s smart, strange, and surprisingly catchy. For all their weirdness, Zvilnik still want you to have a good time — and they usually succeed. Just because they're singing about machines doesn’t mean they aren’t human.
Two boundary-pushing bands, one night of bold music and big ideas. Melody meets madness. Robots meet reverb.
Tickets are £5 + booking fee via Skiddle. Don’t miss it!
