The brilliant Terri Walker will be in Bristol for a show at The Gallimaufry on Gloucester Rd, Cristol BRISTOL on Tuesday 16th June, performing a stripped back intimate version of her new album “Entitled” (because after this many years in the biz quite frankly she is!!!). Alongside Terri will be Bristol boy Jay Wilcox.
Entrance is FREE and all are welcome.
Terri dropped her critically acclaimed debut album ‘Untitled’ in 2003 – featuring a
collaboration with Mos Def – and was nominated for the Mercury Prize and four MOBO awards. Second album ‘LOVE’ pulled in positive reviews and third album ‘I Am’ won fans in The Guardian and BBC, with some claiming it crystallized her position as one of the UK’s leading artists. Following an exhausting tour, Terri took a hiatus from music, questioning the industry, its output and the perception of her as an artist.
“I always thought, ‘I’m a singer, that’s all I want’, but I have stories to tell, people to
inspire, people who feel like I once felt. I’m not just a singer. I’m an artist.” .
Far skilled beyond his years, Odd Future’s Earl Sweatshirt is arguably the main reason the group was catapulted to global demand back in 2010. With impeccable wordplay, dense rhythms and effortless melodies layered in humbling texture, it’s crazy to think Earl Sweatshirt has just turned 21. On his Chum LP, the OFWGKTA trophy piece displays grade-A lyricism in brilliantly dark fashion that you’d only associate with hip-hop’s elite. With talent so boisterous and music so innovative, it’s scary to think the course Earl Sweatshirt is on right now. On 2nd June he headlines The Trinity Centre in Bristol, you know what to do.
Presented by Metropolis and Live Nation.

Winner of ‘Best Metropolitan Festival’ at UK Festival Awards 2013 ‘Dot to Dot offers a unique experience for festival-goers and artists alike’ – efestivals ‘With a stunning bill and venues within yards of one another we’ll leave you to join the dots’ – Clash
Dot To Dot Festival is established as the UKs premier festival for unearthing the hottest new talent around, alongside established acts from all over the globe. 2015 marks the festival’s 10th year and will see it returning to Manchester, Bristol and Nottingham from the 22nd to 24th May. Dot To Dot’s ever eclectic line-up is set to make this landmark year the biggest and best in the festival’s history.
With lots of exciting announcements to follow, this is just the first wave of artists to play this year’s Festival:
Following a stand out set at last year’s festival, headlining this year’s festival will be Saint Raymond, Nottingham’s latest success story. It’s been an incredible year for the singer-songwriter, which has seen him embark on an arena tour with Ed Sheeran as well as a take on a sell-out headline tour of his own. Twenty-one year old Rae Morris also joins the festival in Manchester and Nottingham following a sold out UK tour and top 10 critically acclaimed album “Unguarded’. Irish pop folk duo Hudson Taylor, comprising of brothers Harry and Alfie join the bill, along with The Wytches who bring their blend of critically acclaimed surf-psych to the festival. Also joining Dot To Dot 2015 are Canadian punk-rock band Single Mothers and New York based indie-rockers, Cymbals Eat Guitars.
Glaswegian duo Honeyblood bring their brand of grunge-pop to the festival alongside the folk infused Haim-esque harmonies from Australian trio Little May and Hinds (formerly known as Deers), the garage rock up and comers from Madrid. Laura Doggett (whose music you may recognise from ITV Series Broadchurch) will also perform with her distinctive soulful sound along with the hotly tipped pop fuzz of Menace Beach. Further along the line up, Dot To Dot fans can expect to hear sensual R&B pop courtesy of Brooklyn based singer Tei Shi, atmospheric indie sounds from Racing Glaciers and 4-piece Welsh rock band Pretty Vicious who’ll perform their angsty anthems at the Bristol and Nottingham dates. The full line-up also features Alex Burey’s tenderly emotional pop music, the ‘80s infused electro pop of April Towers and the playful bohemian indie tunes of Vitamin as well as many, many more incredible acts yet to be announced!
Dot To Dot Organiser Anton Lockwood (of DHP Family) said: ‘We’re very excited to be celebrating our 10th birthday here at Dot To Dot and can’t wait to bring the festival back to Manchester, Bristol and Nottingham! We’re proud of the reputation we’ve developed over the last 10 years for promoting new, up and coming talent by giving artists their first chance in front of a festival crowd, and this year’s line-up is no different. Having seen so many previous Dot To Dot artists become huge successes in recent years
we can’t wait to watch some of the emerging talent that the music scene has to offer at this year’s festival. This announcement is only the start of it!’
Previous Dot to Dot line-ups have seen performances from The xx, Mumford and Sons, The 1975, London Grammar, Jake Bugg, SBTKRT, The Cribs, Peace and many, many more. With the emphasis on showcasing the hottest new talent on the planet, there will be lots more exciting additions to be announced for Dot To Dot’s 2015 line-up.

DHP Concerts presents Australian blues signer-songwriter
C.W Stoneking, a musician who draws influence from pre-war blues, jazz, 1920s calypso, folklore, and personal experience to produce his unique original songs. He accompanies himself with National Reso-Phonic guitar and tenor banjo, and with his amazing brass band the ‘Primitive Horn Orchestra’. Stoneking’s songs range in style from lonesome field holler blues, to hokum blues duets, to full blown jungle epics.
Visiting the Trinity Centre again we expect more elaborate stories in amongst his excellent music
07/05/2015 Starts 19:00 to 23:00TICKET PRICE £17.50 TICKETS
Former lead singer of the very successful indie-dance group Moloko, Murphy’s solo material breaks away from the traditional Moloko sound to become a bit more electro and funked up, but at the same time, her songs are often chill-out material.
With a haunting but beautiful voice, Roisin’s unusual vocals carry the trippy sound of her solo material whilst putting her own inimitable style on every single song that she writes and produces.
They have played all over the UK to excellent reviews and Kevin Lovatt has also performed in Nashville, Memphis and Dallas with the US crowd not believing he was English and receiving much praise, The JCT band recreate the sound of the Tennessee three with great authenticity and Kevin’s Wife Kathleen completes the show as June Carter on the great duets like Jackson.
If you love Cash you cannot afford to miss this great show.
