Non Canon @ The Grove with Sarah Carey & Shankland

Non Canon's debut is still one of my most frequently played albums, and it's great to have him return, especially with Sarah Carey who I've not seen play for *ages*!!!

Non Canon is the more chill side project from Oxygen Thief's Barry. We've seen him several times in both guises and it's always a pleasure!!

I've set up a group chat for this at:
Non Canon @ The Grove 23/6

All welcome to join, as always

Tickets are £11 from:

Non Canon will be coming to The Grove Notts 23rd June with added Sarah Carey and Shankland.

Non Canon
The indiefolk alter-ego of Bristol musician Barry Dolan. Starting as a tentative side project away from playing big noisy riffs as Oxygen Thief, this diversion from his usual writing habits made Dolan’s poetic lyrics increasingly precise and personal, with his intimate guitar playing embellished with wider layers of instrumentation.
FFO: Idlewild/Roddy Woomble, Tim Kasher

Sarah Carey
DIY punk singer-songwriter from someplace in between Leeds and Bradford. Writing about themes ranging from gender identity, feminism, mental health and drinking too much buckfast. Sarah's style draws influence from both punk and folk music, combining self-deprecating lyrics and open-tuned riffs in equal measure.
FFO: Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly., Lande Hekt, Buckfast

Shankland
He's one of our own! If you've been knocking around the scene, you may recognise this chap from fronting the band Isaac. Due an album out later this year produced by Peter Hall.
FFO: Billy Bragg, Tim Armstrong
