Carpet

8.30pm Carpet Carpet is the moniker of musician and recording-engineer, Rob Slater, offering a deep commitment to introspection that unsettles, but also somehow comforts, with sure-footed movement through the hidden lives of thoughts most of us let pass without questioning. Although some remnants of Slater?s noisier past remain (The Spills), sitting in a steady landscape of uneasiness Carpet is laced with a softer kind of angst, worn like a gift - the last scrapings of 20s torment, held delicately in their disquiet. Listen to Carpet here https://carpetsongs.bandcamp.com/ 9.15pm Max Blansjaar Max Blansjaar was born in Amsterdam, raised in Oxford and recorded this début album in Brooklyn. He appeared on the Oxford scene in 2018, aged 15, promoting shows in all-ages venues and performing his playfully sincere lo-fi indie pop songs. Since then he has released two EPs of laptop recordings on Beanie Tapes and become a fixture of the local scene, packing out pub back rooms and festival tents. For fans of Darwin Deez.
