Bearer Richard Skelton aeolian.bandcamp.com/album/bearer

Short film with live Nightjrrs, and a plug for our Dumfries show.

Today’s flyer/post-rock postcard comes from our most recent gig at ⁦Vinyl Cafe Carlisle⁩. The spoken word intro of ‘Like Friern’. See you in Dumfries?

Next ad/post-rock postcard takes us to the more experimental end of our spoken word and music. Another plug for our CPA show at Dumfries on Saturday 28th September.

The hopeful start of ‘Dabbin Houses’. Live version of the A Side of our 12”. Recording made at our ‘To The Dabbin Houses’ event last year. What you hear at the end is the turning toward winter…

Richard has made a short film to accompany 'Bearer', filmed in the lowland bogs here in Connemara. Watch it in full on Youtube: youtube.com/watch?v=ZoHGwS…

Oh man…

Latest of our post-rock postcards advertising our gig in Dumfries (see film!). The winter comes in the second part of “Dabbin Houses”: “Skeltonics”.

Next post-rock postcard is the start of current set-closer “Gunshots”, live. Spoken word, drums, guitar sample. “All that’s solid melts into air…”

From the practise room.

The Angle Shades, which is a great name.

From the practise room today: one verse of ‘Veronika’. It will get its first public performance in our gig in Dumfries (see film for details).

Today’s post-rock postcard is the last verse of ‘Lanegan’ - from a live version. One song, or three songs: you decide.

So tonight I’m going to party like it’s 1991: I’m going to sit on the floor not doing my geography homework and ask the neighbours to play the ‘Noel’s House Party’ music too loud.

Today’s post-rock postcard includes a live version of ‘New Lonning’ from ‘Dabbin Houses’. Photos from the ‘To the Dabbin Houses’ event from 2023. Ad for the Dumfries show in the film, too.

From the archives, coming to a mid-song break near you.
