Line Up

Jellyfish - The three piece riff soaked and fuzz riddled grunge band with intricate bass lines and large drums hail from around the Royal Wells. They are a band who are trying to craft a sound unique to what's around them and judging from their new EP, "Tropical Weather", they've done that and more.

Throughout the last 2 years ‘I Am Aquitaine’ have developed a reputation as a formidable live act through extensive gigging; the band continue to work hard, travelling across the UK to convert new supporters to their brand of sultry blues laden pop and dancey grooves.

The band have played numerous seminal venues in London and across the South of the UK including Barfly Camden, The Monarch Camden, The Forum in Tunbridge Wells, key appearances at Trinity Theatre, Tunbridge Wells and two capacity headline shows at The Dublin Castle Camden. Choice festival dates have included ‘Aberjazz’ in Wales, two consecutive years at ‘Mudfest’ supporting Toploader, Goldie Lookin’ Chain and Scouting for Girls, as well as a prominent slot playing the Bimble Inn stage at Beautiful Days (having been booked by festival founders The Levellers themselves).

The band have proven their passion and authenticity throughout their journey; this is reflected in the positive response they continually receive and the ongoing repeat bookings. They have performed and interviewed on BBC Radio Kent, as well as independents such as Miskin Radio and Radio Susy.

In April 2017, I Am Aquitaine released a live session tracked in the Granary Studios for a special collaborative project on vinyl-only. This saw the band revisiting the use of analogue desks and tape; the session was raw and incorporated full live takes. The second band to have participated in the project, I Am Aquitaine follow in the footsteps of The Standard Lamps (The Who tour support, 2016).

Fleetwood Mac and Blondie…. However don’t be fooled by the nods to the past, with front woman Elle at the helm and a tight band behind her, they are original and look firmly to the future. Go see them live.’ Phil Harrison, BBC Radio

‘There’s a bit of Jimmy Hendrix on lead guitar…She reminds me of Stevie Nicks.’ James Whale, BBC Radio

Faded Shades, an alternative rock trio. Listen on Soundcloud! Like us, follow us and share us! Stay tuned for more content soon!

Heyzeus is an Alternative Rock group, from the UK. The duo is comprised of singer/songwriter and guitarist, Jamie Andrew, and partner Jessica-Louise on the drums/percussion. The pair met after Jessica, from Berwick-Upon-Tweed, saw Jamie on an ITV1 Saturday night TV show, and decided to track him down and travel the length of the country to meet him!

Catchy melodies and real feelings, delivered by some beautifully raw, and edgy rock vocals, sung over riffy guitar parts, make Heyzeus a group like no other of their time. The genre, described by Heyzeus himself, is known as ‘Etheric Rock’.

Jamie Andrew has been busking all over the world for the past few years, as a solo musician, performing his songs on some of the worlds most famous streets. Continual exposure through busking has earned Heyzeus some credible gigs at venues such as ‘Ibiza Rocks’ & ‘Hollywood Roosevelt’ Hotels.
