Quade are Barney Matthews (Bass, Vocals), Matt Griffiths (Hardware), Tom Connolly (Violin/Guitar) and Le Fini (Drums), four musicians from Bristol. Signed to the influential AD 93 label the group semi-jokingly describe their sound as “doomer sad-boy, ambient dub, folk, experimental post-rock”. The band released debut album ’Nacre’ in 2023 and found support from the likes of Gilles Peterson, Mary Ann Hobbs and Trevor Jackson. Of Nacre Bandcamp Daily said “Quade’s formula (or , perhaps, lack thereof) is ultimately singular and casually baffling” . They have subsequently supported Moin, Squid and Caroline as well as perform at festivals such as Re:Wire and Arctangent . 2025 sees them release their second album The Foel Tower.

Milkweed are a London-based 'slacker trad' duo, consisting of banjo, guitar, vocals and cut and paste tape extracts. They're forthcoming album is due out this April via Broadside Hacks.
