The song writing and musical skills of Aron Harper-Robinson have long entranced and beguiled audiences the length and breadth of England.

The passionate deeply felt themes of his music have the power to connect everyone in a room whether it is large venues or smoky backstreet nightclubs. The ability to give expression to our deep-rooted fears and passions has been developed over the many years spent travelling through England, Europe then the hinterlands and vast cities of Canada and America. The journey resulted in the release of his first EP, the critically acclaimed ‘Back to the Great Lakes’. This won a following that includes such notable talents as Damon Gough and John Bramwell. Tiring of city life Aron his wife and their young son returned to their roots and now make their home in the wilds of West Yorkshire. The rivers, hills and moors with their vast horizons provide fresh inspiration for this soulful artist. The natural and powerful rhythms found in a simpler life are imbued in the moving compositions of Arons next EP entitled 'We're All Just Part Of Something, And It Hasn't Happened Yet'. Available March 21st 2016.

Armed with infectious songs full of love and wonder, new psych-folk duo, Bird to Beast spin magic from the sounds of yesteryear to create something fresh and unique.

Their timeless melodies and soaring harmonies tip a hat to the pop nous of greats like The Beach Boys, Kate Bush and The Beatles as well as contemporary singer-songwriters like Rufus Wainwright and James Mercer.

The duo signed an album deal with Manchester indie MUK Records in November 2012 and released their debut single, the beautiful accordion-led, ‘To Lips From Lungs’ on Sept 8th as the lead track of a 3 track E.P. 

The single received its first radio plays by the likes of Steve Lamacq on his Radio 2 ‘Rock college’ show, Frank Skinner on his Absolute Radio show, as well as plays and a session on Ruth Barnes’ Amazing Radio show.

The self-titled debut album was made available digitally on MUK Records from the 14th of October with the physical format from 10th December. The band will be performing the album and signing copies at their Manchester launch show at The Castle in the city’s Northern quarter on Nov 4th. 

The second single, the double A sided ‘Elephant / Winter Snow’ will be released on MUK Records on 13th Jan 2014.
