Earslug is a trio from Cumberland playing a mixture of original songs and lesser known track safe-trading.org.my s from this mostly forgotten era. It will be loud. Bring your earplugs.

DAEMON & AIRDRIE

Daemon & Airdrie are an electronic “ghost pop” duo from BC, Canada who combine intensely emotional, interweaving vocal lines with relaxed, minimalbeats and sparse instrumentation to produce soundscapes that are as haunting as they are seductive. Choosing to abandon laptop-based production, the duo create and perform their material using samplers, live instruments and an arsenal of vintage gear, analog tape effects, spring verbs and dusty old tubes. The result? A unique sound that bridges earth and wire – a place where electricity meets and dances with the naked, human body
