SUMMARY:Nana Benz Du Togo
DESCRIPTION:Tickets £15 / £13 concessions.Doors open 7.30pm\, starts 8pm.This gig is for a standing audience. \nOrganic-electronic feminist songs from West Africa. \nVoodoo tradition meets soul—built for the dance floor. There are five of them—like the fingers of one hand. A hand ready to form a fist and strike with power\, or gently caress the earth with groove and grace. \nNana Benz du Togo channels an organic sound steeped in sub-bass and layered with complex polyrhythms\, creating a hypnotic foundation for the voices of three electrifying electro-soul preachers. \nArmed with nothing more than their voices and a vintage Korg keyboard\, this powerful ensemble crafts a sound that’s both raw and transcendent. Their live shows are nothing short of spiritual—a blend of ancestral energy and modern fire that has left thousands in a trance across European stages. \nBandcamp:https://nanabenzdutogo.bandcamp.com/album/ago \nNana Benz Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/intl-pt/artist/4GhejcivCG3Eyp9iMwnxEp \nVideo:https://www.youtube.com/watchv=hyTXiThYWRo&list=RDhyTXiThYWRo&start_radio=1 \nKexp Session:https://www.youtube.com/watchv=8uDs4X93MYo&list=RD8uDs4X93MYo&start_radio=1&t=768s

SUMMARY:Sun Cutter ( aka Kevin Pearce ) - Live @ Colchester Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:Sun Cutter aka Kevin Pearce is buzzed to announce the follow up to his 2022 debut\, an Album of the Week on Germany’s Radio Eins which also charted in Apple Music’s Top 10 in two different album categories. Chock-a-block with soul and folk-infused indie-pop\, Jupiter- sized choruses\, and yearning\, cinematic balladry\, Sun Cutter 2 is a lament to turbulent times\, beginning with a rallying call to shake it off and rise above it all. “All together we will stand and fight the darkness that has taken up our lives” Pearce sings on opener Union\, which has been playlisted by Radio X and has also found love on Mark Radcliffe’s 6 Music show. \nAccompanied by Gale Paridjanian (Turin Brakes) on sax\, Cecilia Fage (Matt Berry & the Maypoles) and the Stagecoach Children’s Choir\, the song is particularly poignant for Pearce since it features backing vocals from his close friend Simon Holliday\, the soundman for Stereolab and Mercury Rev who passed away prematurely last summer. \nOther collaborators on Sun Cutter 2 include Slowdive’s Rachel Goswell on ‘Mud Leaf’ and Michael J Sheehy on ‘The Spectacle’\, the latter nodding to Guy Debord’s The Society of the Spectacle\, albeit with one eye on modern media clickbait and doom-scrolling. \nStylistically\, sonically and emotionally\, Sun Cutter 2 covers plenty of ground\, offering hints of The Beatles\, Leonard Cohen\, Pink Floyd\, Cat Stevens\, Ennio Morricone\, Neil Young\, The Flaming Lips\, Massive Attack and Low\, with a shot of gospel for good measure. \nHe also recently released the educational synth-pop album\, The Sound of Science\, with members of I Monster \, as well as Sci-Fi Ballads for a Lost Generation on UK curio and oddities label Castles In Space.

SUMMARY:Graham Parker - 50th Anniversary Of Howlin Wind & Heat Treatment // Colchester Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:Graham Parker Solo – Celebrating the 50th anniversary of the classic albums Howlin’ Wind andHeat Treatment. \nSlinging his signature guitar and singing with inimitable soulful grit\, Graham Parker has spent more than four decades carving out a singular place in rock and roll. A critics’ favorite and a songwriter’s songwriter\, he emerged in the mid-1970s at a pivotal moment in British music. With his band The Rumour\, Parker released a run of essential albums including Howlin’ Wind\, Heat Treatment\, and the undisputed classic Squeezing Out Sparks\, records that fused literate songwriting with the raw energy that helped reshape rock in the late seventies. \nThroughout the following decades Parker continued to evolve\, releasing acclaimed solo albums such as The Up Escalator\, Another Grey Area\, and The Mona Lisa’s Sister\, blending British rock attitude with deep roots in American R&B\, soul\, and country traditions. Rolling Stone once observed that Parker “owed more to Dylan and Van Morrison than to his punk counterparts\,” a lineage reflected in the emotional intelligence and biting wit that define his songwriting. \nApril 2026 marks the 50th anniversary of Parker’s debut album Howlin’ Wind. To celebratethe milestone\, writer Jay Nachman has authored a new book\, Graham Parker: Howlin’ Wind\,featuring extensive interviews with Parker\, members of The Rumour\, and producer Nick Lowe. The book traces Parker’s childhood and early musical journey\, revealing the experiences and influences that shaped the songs on this classic record. \nAdding to the celebration\, a new limited-edition live album recorded in England featuringParker with The Goldtops and backing singers The Lady Bugs will be released on vinyl in May 2026. \nMore than fifty years after his debut\, Graham Parker remains a true original. His musiccontinues to blend soul\, rock\, wit\, and sharp storytelling in a way that few artists have matched\, securing his place among the most enduring voices in rock and roll.
