Pop Art vs. Industry presents:

ANNA KASHFI + STARLESS & BIBLE BLACK + KATIE BLUNDELL
Friday 23rd Sep @ 14 Lloyd St (off Deansgate), Manchester - £4/£3

Anna Kashfi - Intricate guitarwork from James Youngjohns (Last Harbour) and the beautifully hushed vocals of Sian Webley. Generally compared to the likes of Laura Veirs and Mazzy Star, AK keep conjuring up moments of stark compelling beauty that both haunt and perplex. Playing in support of new album "Palisade" (Stolenwine Records) out soon, and available at this gig.

Starless and Bible Black - Dark and passionate chamber folk music mixing Pentangle and Cocteau Twins with the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. Fronted by the pure voice of chanteuse Helene Gautier, the band uses guitars, dulcimer, mandolin, banjo, double bass, laptop, harmonica, drums and electronics to make a beautiful haunting sound.

Katie Blundell - Melancholy, reflective, vulnerable folk tunes concerning personal mistakes and conflicting shift patterns.
