Greetings!
Our debut EP is now available for all your listening needs! Big thanks to the gang at @joyoflifeinternational for putting this one out and a big thanks to @dan_bloodworth for the fantastic artwork. Hope you like it, tell ya mates!
Our next event at @thegeorgetavern takes place on Thursday June 18th.
Opening the night will be new band @sometimesalwaysband ; sometimes evil, sometimes noisy.
@kansascityplayboys are veracibly a post-punk Americana band active in 21st century London. The features of their lives, passions and motivations remain obscure
@perfectbindingband is the recording project of London-based songwriter and composer Sam Bedford. Based around nylon-string guitar, voice, cello and fragments of tape music, Bedford creates songs that feel gently detached and intimate and yet still rich in atmosphere. His debut EP presents a collection of slow-burning, subtly arranged recordings (Counterparts, Damning, Interlude, Virginia Creeper) interspersed with between-the-eyes alt-rock pop songs (Tincture, Still Boils Fast)that make for an arresting listening experience.
Closing the night will be @loubrishanterry , described by Loud & Quiet Magazine as “Humorous, politically-tinged and at times raucous…with the help of a full band, he creates a richly textured backdrop to his earnest and expressive vocals”. An artist that once won the heart of John Cooper Clarke (who stumbled upon him performing in a pub and was so entranced he missed his train home) Terry has also played shows with Black Country New Road, Piglet as well as supporting Porridge Radio on a run of dates.

Perfect Binding is the project of London-based songwriter and composer Sam Bedford. Worthy of comparisons to the likes of Robert Wyatt, Colleen, Vashti Bunyan or Elliott Smith, Bedford’s work lives in the in-between, neither lo-fi nor polished, neither throw-back nor contemporary. With their debut EP, released in August on Joy Of Life International, Perfect Binding offers a compelling introduction to a songwriter focused on tone, tension, and emotional undercurrent.
