After the break up of his band The Birthday Party in 1982, Nick Cave formed Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds who released their debut album From Her To Eternity in 1984. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have since released fourteen studio albums; and the band's current output remains as vital and explorative as those early pioneering sessions recorded at Hansa Studios in Berlin.

One of the most critically acclaimed acts working today, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ influence has been profound and far-reaching: artists as diverse as Johnny Cash, Metallica and The Arctic Monkeys have all covered their work.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds -- Nick Cave, Warren Ellis, Martyn Casey, Jim Sclavunos, Thomas Wydler and Conway Savage -- have been working together for nearly two decades. Push The Sky Away, the band’s fifteenth studio album, was released in 2013.

James Brute biography


James Brute is the alter ego of James Steel, songwriter and frontman of 2000s East London darlings, The Brute Chorus. Since the release of Bury Yourself—his debut solo single in 2014—his musical tales of love, loss, and lust have ventured into ever darker and more mysterious waters. The warp and weft of his songwriting speak to our basest human instincts, weaving together themes and characters that are at once ancient and modern, arcane and mundane.
In 2025 he began playing some of the most intimate shows of his career: unaccompanied, often completely unplugged, standing alone in the middle of a room among those who had gathered to listen. Stripped of all adornment, his songs emerged raw and unguarded - sung out, slung out and strung out for all to hear. And in that vulnerability, a new path began to emerge, the darkness pricked with the light of hope. 


“…a must see for anyone with a hankering for bleak-abilly blues.” – NME
