What's On / London / Music

Broadside Hacks curate a celebration of the seminal psych-folk pioneers, The Incredible String Band, in Queen Elizabeth Hall: featuring a rare performance from original member Mike Heron, alongside a cast of special guests including Mark Fry, Sam Amidon, Junior Brother, Daisy Rickman and many more to be announced.

Appearing:

Mike Heron

A true superstar of the folk scene. He founded the legendary and aptly named Incredible String Band in 1967 and in the ensuing years recorded with the likes of Pete Townshend, Elton John, Jimmy Page, Richard Thompson, John Cale, Keith Moon and Steve Winwood, with the Rolling Stones and Robert Plant citing him as an influence.

Sam Amidon

Young Vermont-born folk singer Sam Amidon sings, plays fiddle, banjo, guitar, and can count in binary code on his hands really fast.

Junior Brother

An idiosyncratic, challenging and richly lyrical singer/ songwriter, Junior Brother is the pseudonym of Co. Kerry, Ireland singer Ronan Kealy. Chosen as one of RTÉ's Rising Irish Stars of 2018, and as one of The Irish Times' contenders ready to break through in 2019, Junior Brother has built a rabid following thanks to unmissable live shows, and music both excitingly forward-looking and anciently evocative. His strange stories unfold with reckless abandon upon an idiosyncratic Guitar and Foot Tambourine accompaniment, influenced as much by the avant-garde as music from the middle ages and his home place in rural Ireland. Junior Brother has been steadily building a fanbase around Ireland and beyond, winning hearts in iconic venues such as Vicar Street (Dublin), The Beacon Theatre (New York), Cork Opera House (Cork), Blackpool Opera House (UK) to name just a few. He has played support for a variety of like-minded acts such as The Proclaimers and Glen Hansard.
