This one is going to be EPIC!
Back in 2017 Bowl Cut began life at Leeds' iconic Wharf Chambers with a bumper day of music headlined by the LEGENDS that are Penelope Isles. Less than a year later we had them back in Leeds in the packed out basement of a squalid student house. Fast forward nearly ten years and we are beyond thrilled to have one half of the Penny Isles duo back playing with Bowl Cut!
Yes Lilly's new band My Precious Bunny will be gracing our stage for the London leg of their UK tour with the fabulous EERA and Bowl Cut faves Al Cologne!
My Precious Bunny is the solo project of Lily Wolter- songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and one-half of the beloved Brighton duo, Penelope Isles. In celebration of her debut album, ‘A Moment In My Eyes’, to be released this May on Bella Union, Wolter steps out on her own (with 6 close friends by her side), crafting music that feels like deep nostalgia. Bursts of saxophone, clarinet, warm analog synths and restless guitars collide with raw, communal choral power. With some of Brighton’s best players in the mix, MPB is gaining momentum fast.
EERA, is the Berlin-based Norwegian artist Anna Lena Kristen Bruland. Her new record “I’ll stop when I’m done” was produced by Chris Taylor (Grizzly Bear). The album is inspired by the famous Marilyn Monroe quote: “I don’t stop when I’m tired, I only stop when I’m done” and interweaves intimate reflections on what it means to be a modern woman with researched insights into the lives of the starlets from Hollywood’s Golden Age. What emerges is a studied celebration of the female experience, in all its complexity, strength and vulnerability.
EERA has previously released two albums, 2021’s Speak (Just Dust Recordings) and 2017’s Reflections of Youth (Ninja Tune/Big Dada Records) both to much acclaim, championed by mainstream and tastemaker press alike including MOJO, Uncut, Loud & Quiet, Dork, The Line of Best Fit with huge support at BBC 6 Music with Reflection Of Youth awarded ‘Album of the Day’ and a session recorded with Marc Riley.
Al Cologne is an artist whose songs balance vulnerability with an understated confidence. Their debut single milk teeth was released on September 26th via Joy of Life International and received praise for introducing the artists’ diaristic, kitchen-sink songwriting voice that feels both intimate, emotionally attuned and unflinching. Al Cologne writes songs about identity, control, and transformation; about trying to inhabit your own body, and then trying again the day following.
