CD Lauch at The Pool💿 Friday 20th February! TheThreeFeet: BLAST is correct. This has been a labour of love, with Andrew Ciccone creating a wonderful set of individually unique cds. The music of course is unlike anything you’ve heard before. We’ll be launching it at the Pool, which was where we first played in a chance trio at Relay2022. Sharing the bill with Becky Lockett - trombone/s And a duo of Sylvia Hallett & Douglas Benford. @thepoolunderground @iriscolomb @ciccollage @213bisset @beckylockett84 sylviahallett @the_d_benford

to complete the pool's 25th anniversary lineup we have: Shiell-Thompson-Wilson old time friends and long-time collaborators, this trio brings a baltering mix of electronics (Stephen Shiell), cello (Ian Thompson) and percussion (Richard Wilson), dynamic, shape shifting and nebulous. photography 📸 by Dawid Laskowski celebrate 25 gigs together with us at the pool on friday the 19th december 2025 x BE THERE OR BE DRY.

THE POOL 25th GIG LINEUP introducing some acts playing on Friday 19th December - the last pool of 2025 we'll open with a rare chance to hear Josh Vadiveloo play a totally solo set on double bass, possibly his first solo outing since last summer's fizzle series in birmingham... & we have the fantastic Leeds based duo of @bethveaseymusic & @nika_ticciati_official whose music you can hear accompanying this carousel of insta slides. in advance you can (and really should) check out their release 'two treens' on bandcamp for a taste... BE THERE OR BE DRY.
