Blurring the lines between performance art and art rock, Shake Chain toy with and befuddle the audience, tumbling into the crowd in ways that induce unease. Absurdist skewerings of the mediocore are driven home by a musical battering ram. Unhinged thrillsfor the terminally paradoxical.

Note the slight tweak to the Saturday line-up - Simon Scott has had to pull out, but we have managed to add the wonderful Rachel Watkins and the amazing Lola!

Soon: TASHI DORJI + LASH/JOYNES + NYE JONES - Sun 5th Oct @ The Blue Moon, Cambridge

Totally unbound and original improvising guitarist who explores a wide world beyond his instrument. "Strumming in opposition to the towers", he defiantly creates radically joyful sounds of equal chaos and form.
