Communion Leeds – 28 March

With a new home of The Brudenell Social Club, Leed’s Communion offers up its first ever six bill of artists in March, with a line-up of great variety.

Our headliner, Nat Johnson is the former singer, songwriter and guitarist of Monkey Swallows the Universe who released two critically acclaimed albums earlier in the decade. The five-piece toured with the likes of Richard Hawley, the Long Blondes and Camera Obscura, played a host of festivals and performed live sessions for Radio 4 and 6music among others.

Supports:

Alexander Wolfe – “If you like Nick Drake and Elliott Smith you’re gonna love Alexander Wolfe.”

Hugh Gavin – A mix of swooning vocals and great lyrics, a true talent to keep your eyes on for the future.

Jay Hart – An indie-infused-alt-country affair, with beautiful melodies, aching chorus’s and thought provoking lyrics. His debut E.P. is out later this month.

Sootytern – Newbies to Leeds are Cumbria’s offering to the folk/pop genre, inspired by the likes of Modest Mouse, Decemberists and British Sea Power, they provide a coastal outlook on various aspects of life.

Germain – Up and coming indie from Leeds, making a name for themselves with a true rock n roll passion will open proceedings with a striped down acoustic set.
