More details
Weirdshire have provided the following information;
First up will be our old friends Diamond Family Archive. Centring on the song writing, singing and guitar playing of reclusive artist and musician Laurence Collyer from Totnes (or at least he may be… biographical details are sketchy!). Diamond Family Archive played one of the most memorable Weirdshire events on a summer’s evening in the middle of the on-off lockdown times in 2021.
Working as a duo of Laurence and Peter Collis (on drums, percussion, effects, keyboards and melodeon). They create a mesmeric live-show from drums and acoustic guitars, lots of FX pedals, keyboards set to drone, tape delay, loops and bellows, bows, toys and broken cymbals. Diamond Family Archive craft music which holds echoes of post-rock, traditional folk, spiritual soul music, psychedelic rock and lo-fi…haunting, fragile, sublime lo-fi melancholia, atmospheric, lazy grace…. Strange and tender songs; personal and pastoral themes; mixed with sleepy-eyed awe creating intense, spectral folk with a distinctly British sound.
This show will be at the Speakeasy Bar, in the Left Bank Village, Thursday 4th December.
