LOCAL INDIE-FOLK BAND TO LAUNCH SINGLE IN ST MARY'S CHURCH
Wed 10th October 2018
On Saturday 10th November 2018, local indie-folk band ‘Elwhaeko’ will launch their much anticipated new single ‘Lone Wolf’ at a special, one-off event at St Mary’s Church, North Bar Within, Beverley.
Having played shows across the UK festival circuit and supported the likes of ‘Reverend and the Makers’, ‘Space’, ‘Curtis Eller’ and ‘Neon Waltz’, Elwhaeko’s inspiring, spirited sound is as infectious as it is atmospheric. The band’s last single ‘Overthink’, released via Warren Records, featured on the label’s Three Minute Heroes compilation which was rated four stars in MOJO plus supported by Channel 4’s Sunday Brunch, Radio X’s John Kennedy, BBC Radio 1’s Huw Stephens and BBC 6Music’s Gideon Coe.
Elwhaeko consist of a mixture of local musicians, Lee Atkinson (guitar & vocals) & Laura Douse (bass & vocals) with Jack Husch (lead guitar), David Tomlinson (drums) and Leo Lion (harmonica). This atmospheric event will include an exclusive screening of the accompanying music video and will be supported by two of the region’s most revered bands. Psychedelic Folk duo ‘Crooked Weather’ have recently returned from touring Australia and New Zealand and will deliver an intimate set accompanied by their newly acquired cellist, and indie-folk siblings ‘Happy Endings’ offer beautifully atmospheric song writing, drenched in ethereal harmonies.
Starting at 6pm, the event will also greatly benefit the Church itself with punters only asked to donate £2, which will go towards the on-going maintenance and upkeep of this magnificent building. Refreshments will be available with a licenced bar and merchandise from all acts will be available. The evening promises to be a wonderful occasion all round.
