@generalbench has been hosting events as @twende_events, inspired by his time living in Kenya. Twende is the first Swahili word he learnt — it means ‘let’s go, let’s move!’
As Alex’s music taste has evolved, so have his events. His latest ‘all live’ music night featured stunning performances from @alokasacki, @penn3y_coin17 and @soulbeeartist , making for a beautiful Sunday evening 🎶❤️
Alex talks about creating a space to showcase artists and just how happy it makes him feel to be able to do this within the Bristol music community- something that’s becoming more and more important.
These events have brought a lot of people together and we can’t wait to see what’s next 🌀💙
Thank you, @generalbench @twende_events + @thejamjar_bristol 💫
@seckoukeitamusic, master kora player and griot, performing at @swxbristol with @through_t_noise and recently bringing the Homelands UK tour to a close. 🌍✨
Talking to Nobody, Seckou reflected on his journey-from growing up as a griot in southern Senegal, where at the age of seven he was learning how to build an instrument, to becoming an adopted figure in the UK’s music scene.
Seckou’s smile lit up the stage throughout the entirety of the show and he performed alongside his sister Binta Suso as the dancers also brought high energy to this uptempo album - Homeland - Chapter 1 🎤🎶
Seckou spoke about the connection he feels while playing the kora (a 21 stringed traditional African instrument) describing it as meditative. His use of spoken word tracks and storytelling ties seamlessly into his music as he describes it as being ‘A journey’.
We were taken back by the pure love of music that Seckou and The Homeland Band hold. We all feel the same joy, giving us a glimpse into African music and watching you perform 😁
Thank you, @seckoukeitamusic + @through_t_noise 💙🌀

@thisisthekit on living in Bristol and performing at some of the most unique venues—including Tiny Desk @nprmusic , @minacktheatre , a hairdresser’s, and even a cave! 🌀
Kate’s songwriting and storytelling perfectly complement the adventurous, outdoorsy and natural feel of her music. Her softly spoken words and harmonies carry a deeper meaning, creating a strong and personal connection with her fans. 🎤
Thank you for talking with us, it was a beautiful performance on the Mountain Stage at @greenmanfest with the sun beaming down! 🌞
We can’t wait to see you again—perhaps one day in a cave, out in the wilderness 🐻 💙
Thank you to @greenmanfest @roughtraderecords @thisisthekit
@groovearmada talking on their 90’s trip-hop influences from the likes of @airfrenchband and @portisheadofficial, crafting their hugely popular live shows into more dance music with the release of Superstylin’ and reminiscing on performances at Brixton Academy with Richie Havens. 🌀
Closing off Central Stage at @lovesavesthedayfestival and getting a glimpse of their dedication to making live dance music sound phat. 🔊
Thank you 💙
