RADAR LOVE :: BEN EDMONDS :: HHYMN :: THE BARNUM MESERVE :: RIO

Recently signed Ben Edmonds from Son Of Eagle will be playing a special solo show at this weeks Radar Love. Support comes from Hhymn. The sound of hhymn is the sound of Nottingham, bleak but beautiful. Ritchie and Bannard mined the cities clubs and venues and handpicked a group of the finest musicians to add weight and depth to their compositions. A succession of self released singles quickly sold out as the band steadily gained recognition before recording and releasing their debut album on Denizen Records. They followed this with an incredible set of live videos that perfectly showcased their stunning live performances, which by now had picked up rave reviews from around the UK.

It is this timeless yet original quality in Hhymn's music that makes them stand out in an overcrowded field and led film director Shane Meadows (This is England, Dead Mans Shoes) to describe In the Depths as his most listened to album of 2011. Momentum is building steadily behind the band as they sit right at the centre of the burgeoning and buzzing scene in Nottingham. As the sun rises on 2012 all the signs indicate that it could be their year.

The Barnum Meserve consists of Leon Wiley (piano and vocals), Dylan Griffiths (bass guitar), and Paul Moss-Pearce (drums) who bring together a unique sound that will take you on an epic journey. The haunting piano tunes are accompanied by an impressive vocal range, which will draw you in with it’s emotional softness, and then blow you away with Leon’s distinctive raucous scream. This combined with the powerful drums and grinding bass will guarantee the floor will be shaking!

Opening the night will be Burton based Rio
