August’s event is Wednesday 6th August 2025 featuring Daniall Lee, Will Payne Harrison, Owes and Mike Ryan.
Imagine the lovechild of Jarvis Cocker and John Grant, conceived at a Bowie gig and raised on the sound of synthesizers, Britpop and showtunes… This is Daniall Lee, a genre-defying multi-instrumental singer-songwriter with the deft piano skills of Elton John and the rich baritone of Scott Walker.
Daniall plays piano, guitar, bass, drums and even a bit of saxophone and sings his own songs. His songwriting is similarly diverse, taking inspiration from a plethora of artists from Rachmaninov to Radiohead, via Billy Joel and Billy Currie, to create an extensive and eclectic body of work that already comprises over 30 songs to be released during 2025. Musical highlights have included winning Staffordshire Young Musician of the Year and performing on stage with Belle and Sebastian.
With three albums and an EP under his belt, since relocating to Nashville over a decade ago, Will Payne Harrison continues to build on his reputation as one of East Nashville’s most thoughtful and dynamic storytellers. Hot off the heels of his 2022 album Tioga Titan, Harrison is set to release his newest project, Still Feelin’ the Payne, on August 15th, 2025 — an 11-song collection of pure country music and swampy honky tonk that proves his artistic evolution shows no signs of slowing down.
OWES hail from Hemel Hempstead, UK. Formed and thwarted almost immediately in the haze of 2020 they found themselves confined to isolation and a completely remote means of creating. A flurry of songs emerged and a series of demos known as “source DEMOgraphics” was released on SoundCloud soon after. Over time their live shows have exhibited a concoction of grunge, electronic, punk and pop delivered with a restrained fury and a degree of mysticism. The wheels seem to be coming off at any given moment but the vehicle always just about remains intact.
Their debut EP, “THE ‘FRIENDS IN DARK PLACES’ EP” was released in the summer of 2023, accompanied by the single “money’s worth”, which has become a stalwart in their live performances. Their latest batch of songs have been recorded with the proceeds of their recent success at The Zombies’ Battle of the Bands 2024.
Mike Ryan is an award-winning singer-songwriter and performer from the Wirral. Blending Indie-folk and alt-pop, he has been on a steady rise since the release of his debut single, ‘I’m With You’, which was produced by Bill Ryder-Jones at Yawn Studios. He has since released four albums to critical acclaim. Calling to mind everything from Elliott Smith and The Beatles to Radiohead and Nirvana, Mike has played throughout Merseyside, including performances at the Liverpool Philharmonic Music Room and Future Yard in Birkenhead.
A two-time winner of the Liverpool Acoustic Song Writing Challenge, winning the Audience Favourite Award in consecutive years, Mike is currently working on new music with acclaimed producer Jon Lawton. His new single Lily’s Last Waltz is out now on 471 Records.
