The Ivy House Presents another incredible show here on Friday August 28th, where we’ll be joined by Kiran Leonard, Jennifer Walton and Another Country $$$$ a week before they all head to Dorset to play 2026.

Kiran Leonard’s unique and ambitious body of work spans more than a decade of frenetic noise rock, ornate avant-folk, DIY no-fi, and everything in between. Renowned for the range and intensity of his live performances, his current live group features members of caroline and Shovel Dance Collective.

Jennifer Walton is a London-based musician whose debut album Daughters explores grief, memory and surreal Americana. She’s also known for her work with Cryalot, Microplastics, Iceboy Violet, BABii, and remixes for Metronomy.

Another Country $$$$ are a Manchester-based audio-visual duo, born through the city’s experimental dance underbelly- combining shape-shifting electronic production, live drums and visuals. They craft blistering hybrid sets that fuse dub, jungle, DnB, garage, noise and hyperpop with a haunting cinematic edge.

Will be a movie.
