Sunday Nov 1

Sean Blythe & Mary Hope

For anyone seeking something real, intimate or authentic: “Solace” is more than finding comfort, it is the dissolution of weight and the formation of hope through sound. A space for emotion and warmth, carried through live, authentic music. The collective search for freedom and shared release. Featuring two back-to-back 45 minute sets of original work by Sean Blythe and Mary Hope, alongside defining covers that help shape the ethos of the night.”
