FORTHCOMING EVENTS

Eat Static

Originally formed as an Ozric Tentacles offshoot way back in 1989, Eat Static have set the bar for sci-fi drenched, alien-oriented techno ever since. Merv Pepler coaxes unearthly bleeps, squelches and other-wordly sounds from his ongoing deep dive into modular synthesis, combined with beats, pulses and bass rhythms that continue to pack dance floors and festival fields across the world. An Eat Static performance contains no presets and no off-the-shelf samples that you will have heard in other tracks, just the latest output from Merv’s fervent imagination.

Banco de Gaia

Toby Marks has been performing as Banco de Gaia since 1989 with 17 albums to his credit (20 if you count cassette releases), the latest being the critically acclaimed ‘Trauma’. Live sets combine an array of exotic samples from across the globe with complex yet danceable rhythms and stunning visuals as classic tracks such as ‘Last Train to Lhasa’ and ‘Heliopolis’ segue seamlessly in an ever-evolving mix.

This event is a fundraiser for Exeter’s sound alternative community radio station, Phonic FM.

Creedence Clearwater Revival, commonly abbreviated as CCR or simply Creedence, was an American rock band formed in El Cerrito, California. The band consisted of lead vocalist, lead guitarist, and primary songwriter John Fogerty, his brother, rhythm guitarist Tom Fogerty, bassist Stu Cook, and drummer Doug Clifford.

The band’s most prolific and successful period between 1969 and 1971 produced fourteen consecutive Top 10 singles (many of which were double A-sides) and five consecutive Top 10 albums in the United States – two of which, Green River (1969) and Cosmo’s Factory (1970), reached number one. The band also performed at the legendary 1969 Woodstock festival.

CCR’s music remains popular and is a staple of U.S. classic rock radio airplay; 45 million CCR records have been sold in the U.S. alone. The compilation album ‘Chronicle: The 20 Greatest Hits’, originally released in 1976, is still on the Billboard 200 album chart and reached the 600-week mark in August 2022. It has been certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for at least 12 million copies sold in the U.S.
