Charming formed in November 2011 and settled into their line up in December. They gigged for 1 year as a four piece and in October of 2012, Lisa joined with her shakey eggs to form a five piece. 

As this five piece, they play Alternative Folk Prog Rock, which is a genre put together using all their influences. Mumford and Sons, Kodaline, Dry the River and Radiohead are just some of the bands that help influence Charming’s unique sound. 

Bestival, Isle of Wight and V Dub are some of the festivals charmed by the folk rock quintet. They have also played venues such as Joiners in Southampton (supporting Billy Lockett), The Octagon in Bath (Party In The City) and The Talking Heads in Portswood (Oxjam).

Rapper, producer, firestarter. Songwriter, multi instrumentalist, raconteur… Dizraeli is a genre of his own. From his cult debut album Engurland / City Shanties (2009) to the explosive new LP Joy Machine (2024) with its visionary mixture of hiphop, post-punk and jazz, Diz has always forged his own way.

A former resident of the legendary Total Refreshment Centre, Dizraeli’s new album Joy Machine was recorded there in a single day, bringing together some of the most exciting musicians in London’s jazz explosion. 

With features from Alabaster DePlume and trumpeter Jonathon Enser (Nubiyan Twist), drums from Ben Brown (Alfa Mist, Mulatu Astatke), bass from uk jazz scene favourite Daisy George, synths from Joseph Costi (Yusef Cat Stevens) and saxophone from free jazzer Ronan Perrett, Joy Machine has already made waves since its release on Def Pressé this summer, including Bandcamp Album Of The Day, 4 stars from Mojo and repeated support from Gilles Peterson.

The album tour hit 15 UK cities and festivals including Boomtown, Boardmasters, WOMAD and Shambala, cementing Dizraeli’s reputation as an explosive and masterful live performer with backing from Ben Brown, Ronan Perrett and Snazzback’s Rich Allen on bass.
