Yorkston Thorne Khan

Sold Out
The Old Queens Head 44 Essex Rd Islington London N1 8LN

£14.50 ADV 8PM

Yorkston Thorne Khan are an experimental group that includes James Yorkston, one of the most “influential singer/songwriters on the Scottish folk scene”, Suhail Yusuf Khan, award winning sarangi player and classical singer from New Delhi and Jon Thorne, best known as jazz double bass player with electro outfit Lamb.

This is Scottish-Irish-Indian-English music in the raw, Yorkston’s familiar steel guitar strings pulled, pushed and bent into more unfamiliar acoustic drones, the bass dropping anchors through the floor. Rather than world music per se, this sounds more idiosyncratic, a temporary structure bivouacking by the side of the indie-folk, art music tradition, while its widening horizons extend back to the Sixties heyday of the Incredible String Band, and forward to this singular album’s satellite orbit over the folk music, Indian classical and indie music of today – all these musical ley lines threaded into a new kind of eclectic, domestic setting.

FREE 8PM

Receiving comparisons to Beach House and Girls, Wedding are a dreamy duo releasing sun-kissed psychedelic sounds out of RIP Records via Berlin.

Having formed back in 2015, the pair spent the year refining 8-track demos which culminated with their self titled debut EP, a collection of fuzzy jangling gems that could have been made in the 60s.

Now working on a follow up release, they’ve made time for a free Shacklewell Arms show in February.

Weaving indie riffs and dreamy vocals into a swirling stripped back haze, Max Pope looks set to be a name to follow in the future.

With only a couple of songs under his belt he’s already received love from Clash, who pen that standout track Less Than Nothing “feels like a UK riposte to Mac DeMarco with its hazy, DIY charms”.

Having already supported fellow solo crooner Dan Croll on tour, he plays this free show at The Waiting Room. Named as one of Spotify’s picks for 2016, you need to catch him before he’s huge.
