 RAMMEL CLUB #088 (EARLY GIG - starts at 6, finishes at 9)
Yerba Mansahttps://soundcloud.com/yerba-mansa"Edwin Stevens (Irma Vep, Sex Hands, Klaus Kinski etc) and Andrew Cheetham (ABC trio, Birchall/Cheetham duo etc) are two of Manchester's most prolific purveyors of raging, outer-limits rock-ism. Both members of free-rock army Desmadrados Soldados de Ventura as well as countless other projects, they take a similar blueprint for their head-to-head skyscraping duo, only with a singularity of heavy chord chug that aligns them with Gown or even Michael Flower & Chris Corsano. Truly mind blowing." - Nick Mitchell, Golden Lab Records, 2015Nick Jonah Davishttp://www.nickjonahdavis.com/https://nickjonahdavis.bandcamp.com/'Nick Jonah Davis is a solo instrumental guitarist based in rural Derbyshire.

RAMMEL CLUB #089THOMAS BONVALETThomas Bonvalet, (born October 1977, France) lives in Alpedrete, Spain. Guitar player of the band Cheval de frise between 1998 and 2004, he made his first solo show under the name of l’ocelle mare in September 2005.This solitary project initially focused on the nylon string guitar, taking short, dynamic and abrupt forms and limiting itself exclusively to the acoustic possibilities of the instrument. A radical posture, it constantly threatened to put itself at an impasse, seeing itself forced into metamorphosis and movement. The instrument thus became less and less identifiable. At the periphery it absorbed the sound of objects (metronome, tuning forks…) deviating from their common usage, integrating the breath and the sounds rising from the instrumental gesture, splitting up to reveal a new fleeting form. Amplification has also progressively taken an essential part in this new instrumentarium/organism. However, there remains this same subterranean voice, the consideration of detail and tension, the seeking of possible points of sudden revelationHe toured Europe, Scandinavia, Israel, USA and China and performed in international festivals such as UH Fest (Budapest-Hungary), Alternativa festival (Prague-Czech Republic), Borealis Festival ( Bergen- Norway), Festival MIMI(Marseilles-France) and Ephemeral Festival (Beijing, China).Beside his solo work, he has recently collaborated with other bands and musicians such as Arlt, Powerdove, Radikal satan and Jean-luc Guionnet.https://thomasbonvalet.wordpress.com
