Anyones Ghost

Anyone’s Ghost are a 4 piece post punk band from Hertfordshire. The band made a name for themselves locally through bringing an abundance of infectious energy to their shows with songs containing punching melodies and socially aware lyrics. After generating a local buzz and fan base, the only way seemed up before they were halted by the coronavirus pandemic. Using their time wisely, the 4 schoolmates spent the multiple lockdowns writing and crafting their sound, trying to push themselves beyond the boundaries using a wider range of influences. Anyone’s Ghost wants to captivate anyone who comes across their music, whether it be live or recorded and give them a sense of joy and connection through the emotion and passion poured into their songwriting and performance. The band released a few demos back in April 2020 which were widely received well and are now preparing to release their highly anticipated debut EP ‘A Condition’ on the 30th July 2021.

The Mann and I

Starting out as a two piece back in 2018, Tara and Edd created ‘The Mann and I’ who played edgy folk, for edgy folk. Revamping songs written by alternative singer/songwriter Edd Mann, they gigged around Brighton and London playing venues such as Concorde 2 and The Bedford.

In 2019 they were joined by bassist Ash Thompson and drummer Joe Savage. Together they created a new “rockier” sound taking influence from bands such as No Doubt, Mars Volta and Blondie. Notable shows the band have played together include, the O2 Academy - Islington twice, one in which they support Republica, The Notting Hill Arts Club and the Green Door Store.
