Gemma Ray with special guest Lapis Lazuli

Essex born-and-bred beauty Gemma Ray is a singer-songwriter with a difference: her songs beguile you in the same way classic melodies do, yet somehow defy comparison. The heart-on-sleeve craftswomanship of her tunes allows full rein to roller-coasting intensity and twisted humour as she wraps her velvety vocals around little gems of pop, country, blues and gospel-inflected beauty.

Downtown luminary Lapis Lazuli best known for his contributions to Pussy Galore, Boss Hogg, Foetus Inc, continues to baffle audiences with his brand of electrochestral mayhem. it is a retrofit that works its subtle and not so subtle magic on the unsuspecting listener.
