Winter Gardens • Oliver Beardmore • Shtëpi A night of boundary-pushing alternative music from three of the UK’s most exciting rising acts. **Winter Gardens** blend shoegaze dreamscapes with post-punk energy and gothic undercurrents, powered by soaring dual vocals and cinematic textures. Fresh from European festival stages and BBC Radio 1 airplay, their sound is as immersive as it is emotionally raw. **Oliver Beardmore** brings his acclaimed fusion of shoegaze, alt-pop, and lo-fi songwriting, shaped in studios like Real World and praised by BBC Radio 1 and Blur’s Dave Rowntree alike. Expect haunting melodies, layered production, and razor-sharp songwriting that echoes Elliott Smith and Imogen Heap in equal measure. Opening the night, **Shtëpi** channel chaotic art-punk energy with a furious live presence. Gigging alongside names like Geese and Lounge Society, and recently longlisted for Glastonbury’s Emerging Talent 2024, this Brighton-based five-piece are one of the most electrifying new acts on the circuit. Presented by Hootananny Brixton. This is an 18+ event
