Guiding Hand Readings

My name is Charlie McMahon and I am a fashion and textile designer from the North East of England. My work is inspired by rural textile traditions and bringing them into a high fashion context. My most recent project is inspired by a series of nightmares I had as a child featuring the painting ‘Miss Wong’ by Vladimir Tretchikoff, which hung in my living room when I was growing up. Inspired by the paintings vivid colours and the subjects piercing stare, I have made a wardrobe of clothes for this nightmare woman. Featuring over the top colours and prints that swarm around the body and unconventional silhouettes and pattern cutting, in order to emulate the disorienting feeling of being in a nightmare.

Hey everyone, my name is Nasan and I am a young and London based DJ. I look forward to making your night as memorable as possible and I hope you love my sound!! Can not wait to perform for you all!!

We’ve been playing live since May 28th 2021 - we formed in university during lockdown so it was a bit of a slow burn at first, but as soon as we hit the stage we realised there was an energy between us and the audience that we were not used to experiencing, certainly not in little pub gigs. Fast forward a year and we have opened Islington Assembly Hall in front of hundreds of strangers - it was insane! And the crowd’s response was incredible. Fast forward another year and we’re now finishing up a long residency at The Camden Club in London where we’ve played numerous sold out shows. During this time we’ve also toured the UK and Portugal playing in front of crowds of up to 3,000 and we are ready to smash out the festival scene this summer and make the crowds go wild. Hello Amnesia isn’t the most well known band on the circuit, but we’re a great crowd pleaser (even to people who don’t like rock music) and we’re just keen to get out there and share our fun with more people!

Having been named one of the best emerging artist sets at Glastonbury by Wonderland Magazine, Still Pigeon are flying through the UK alt-rock landscape with the momentum of a band who know exactly who they are. What began in Oxford as mates making noise together has evolved into one of East London’s most energised live communities, where The Flock and the band move as a single, sweat-soaked organism. Sharp-witted lyricism, brash synth lines, and angular guitars power a sound built on tension and release, fuelled by BBC Introducing, BBC Radio 6, Spotify’s Fresh Finds, and sold-out shows at The Great Escape, Truck, Wychwood, and Glastonbury. With their recent EP out in Spring, the band sit on the cusp of a new era.
