Please join Hannabiell Sanders, Yilis del C. Suriel and Thuli Mazwi - as they explore current music styles and their rich roots in the Southern African, West African and African American musical traditions.
Featuring plenty of live drumming and piano thumbing!
Shortly after the ladies we will be popping up the pace with...
๏๏ Illustrators ๏๏
NARC. Magazine //
"Illustrators may be preparing for an assault on the scene that has spawned run of the mill acts for as long as the memory stretches"
Tom Robinson - BBC 6 Music //
"With everyone singing backing vocals, the songs were hooky and to the point.. without an ounce of surplus fat"

Newcastle’s Urban Geisha is an artist in many senses of the word. Having made her name over the years as an exceptional DJ, playing an infusion of acid breaks, grime, dubstep, electro, experimental electronica and rock (to name just few), she has recently taken on new elements of performance. As an artist and vocalist she is skillfully fusing eclectic ideas from many genres, incorporating poetry, movement and art in her theatrical appearances.
She currently collaborates with electronic band Jonstun to showcase live sound that mixes atmospheric electronics with soulful vocals and distorted guitars. Their first “Soulshaker EP” is available for download on iTunes.
