Chris Brain is a Yorkshire-based folk singer-songwriter whose work sits firmly in the British pastoral tradition, shaped by close attention to place, memory and emotional nuance.

THE LOFT

Thursday 28th May / 8pm / £16

One of the most influential guitar bands of the ’80’s. Long before Oasis and Primal Scream helped make Alan McGee’s Creation label a worldwide success, indie legends The Loft blazed the trail notching up impressive firsts for the label. 
First Creation band to get to number 1 in the indie singles chart, first Creation band to appear on TV, first Creation band to be invited on a major UK tour and first Creation band to record a coveted BBC Radio 1 session, that was for the Janice Long Show in 1984. Then, when on the verge of greatness, came the infamous on stage tragedy, splitting up, mid song, in front of thousands at the Hammersmith Palais. 
40 years after that acrimonious split they thought it would be a good idea to reunite and record their debut album. In 2024 they played to a sell out crowd at London’s Moth Club, appeared at Glastonbury and recorded a session for BBC 6 Music’s Riley & Co. That session was rush released on glorious 10″ vinyl by London label Precious Recordings. Enter Hamburg based Tapete Records who, hearing rumours about new Loft material, snapped up the album and signed the band without hearing a single note. The resulting, 10 track album “Everything Changes, Everything Stays The Same” was released by Tapete in March 2025.
Louder Than War said “It’s very rare you get an album this good, absolutely perfect in every way. Every song is utterly fantastic, uplifting joy to listen to from start to finish”
