In association with Caught by the River we are very pleased to be able to offer a pair tickets for the forthcoming Caught by the River Social Club on Sunday 15 November at Bush Hall, London.
Like all of their curated events they bring a freshness and originality, this is no exception with music from Darren Hayman and July Skies; poetry from Will Burns and Martha Sprackland; Richard Skelton in conversation with Radiohead’s Colin Greenwood and Frances Castle of Clay Pipe Music will be spinning some tunes!
Caught by the River Social Club
Darren Hayman presents ‘Thankful Villages’.
A Thankful Village is a village where every soldier returned alive from World War I – Darren is currently visiting all 54 of these villages, making a piece of music and short film for each one. He will be providing a taster of both the films and music from this project.
A rare live performance from July Skies
July Skies’ classic much underheard debut album ‘Dreaming of Spires’ was first released in 2002. This month has seen the album released on vinyl for the first time. A Caught by the River classic. This will be their first London gig since god knows when.
Richard Skelton in conversation with Radiohead’s Colin Greenwood
Richard, along with his partner Autumn Richardson, runs Corbel Stone Press, taking a particular interest in landscape, the poetics of place, ecology, folklore and animism. Richard will be talking to Colin Greenwood about his new book, Beyond the Fell Wall (read our recent post about it here), published by Little Toller Books in November.
Poetry from Faber New Poet Will Burns and Martha Sprackland
