A very special evening is in store.
Serving his apprenticeship in numerous bands in the hotbed of the Southend-on-Sea pub rock scene M G has been quietly working at creating rich and evocative story songs since 2013. Garnering praise from reviewers like Uncut describing his work as ?gorgeous in a word? and R2 listing him as ?a weapons grade songwriter.
M G?s songwriting creates vignettes of ordinary life and seaside communities. This writing is no better shown than in his 2021 album Clifftown, a themed album based on his personal experiences and the wider hidden histories of his hometown, Southend-on-Sea .
M G has recorded in The Fishermen?s Chapel and is thrilled to be performing here again.

Scottish singer-songwriter and Rough Trade Records recording artist Samantha Whates is a hugely respected figure on the London folk & roots scene. Her beautifully crafted, poetic songs retain a strong affinity with her Scottish roots, cultivating a sound that is thoroughly contemporary, rooted in tradition, yet uniquely her own.

Amongst a digital mountain range littered with accomplished folk-ish bands and singersongwriters, it is a rare miracle to come across a cave so rich in jewels as the one beneath Ida Wenøe?s ribcage. Clash Magazine?s description of her sound as being ?bewitching acid
folk with a deeply personal edge??
