Look what showed up in the post! 💙

I used to run an art collective when I was younger and this fine man, Caylan, was a part of it - he ran a great zine and is now living in Niigata, playing in a band, experiencing the culture out there and generally being a sick lad.

He’s also been working on this newsletter - - that he very generously sent over to me to distribute over here. I feel very lucky to have this in my hands!

There’s two different editions, one with an interview with myself, and another with on. But disregarding any Big Richard involvement there’s also some fantastic articles with , an article about how much Caylan misses red bricks… and more.

Give me a shout if you want one! All for free. That’s the power of community, more of this please.

Birthing their own nutty brand of silly billy-core, pimple popper punk, Brìe make their steady return to the internet following a three year-long streaming detox with brand new EP “Abinger Hammer”, out now on Big Richard.

This is the band’s most ra**chy work yet. And so, to celebrate this, I’ve shared the two most ra**chy pictures I could find of , as a thank you for posting about the EP on the band account. Isn’t he a sexy boy? Owen will thank me in the future for leaking his ra**ch pics because it will earn him so many fans.

Jokes aside, if you didn’t already know, is John (who runs the label with Dom) and Dom’s (who is now speaking in third person) punk band. If it wasn’t for us trying to do the first Brìe release independently and realising it’s mandatory to fill in the “label” section on DistroKid… there probably wouldn’t be any Big Richard.

So in the name of all things musical! Let there be Brìe!

BRR #26: After an extended away-period from the internet full of gigs, travels and regular trips to watch the monkeys at the zoo, is finally back with a truly charming, compelling ear worm for his first 2024 release. Having put out his debut album with us last summer, the boy really buckled down and honed a new sound for the next batch of stuff - for now, just look forward to this one-off banger. Out on the 15th of May.

11th May is the day a lot of places that don’t give a toss will be getting their Graham Norton cutouts and screening Eurovision. It’s not on - Eurovision are refusing to remove Israel from the competition, providing cultural cover & endorsement for the horrific genocide that Netanyahu and his spineless lackey’s are waging on the people of Palestine.

So f**k that, let’s have a gig instead. We’ve got:
⭐️ - death-rave / mental breakdown music
⭐️ - experimental electronic 3 piece
⭐️ - joy inducing garage rock
⭐️ .habit - DIY playful garage punk

We’ll be donating all proceeds from the audience to and their Legal Defence Fund which helps brave activists, who take action against arms manufacturers and their counterparts, stay out of prison.

🎫 free entry show but donations heavily encouraged. Let’s raise a good amount for these people and have a good time whilst doing so.

Man honestly - thank you so much to everyone who came down on Friday. The is the absolute best venue in the world & it deserves all the attention it can get.

They consistently bring in some of the best talent from all around the country and to be frank it was an absolute honour to be able to promote at the place which gave me a footing in music and life in general…

Not only this but it was extra special because you all showed up for the bands, and I think a lot of new people got to see what a great place it is - which is an amazing thing to have during Independent Venue Week.

Thank you to:
empires
habit

And to all the volunteers, staff & punters who helped make this night probably one of my favourite gigs of all time ⭐️

We’ll be back soon!

Something look familiar? 🧐 unfortunately Funhaus had to drop out of this one, luckily we’ve got .empires coming down for it instead!

SO - the next one, we’ve got / .empires / / .habit down for an honestly SWEATY night at my favourite venue in the whole wide world, 🥹 myself and countless others got their footing in music through this place and the wonderful people there.

The Westy is in ALDERSHOT - this is NOT IN LONDON. It is, however, only about an hour out from Waterloo so if you do fancy it, you’ll be able to get home the same night.

Hometown crew - this one’s for you ❤️ and it’s an IVW show which I LOOOOOVE 💗🥹

🎫 tickets are available through the link in our story highlights. Get on them quickly!! It’s gonna be a blinder!
