Dylan Gers + Electric Face + dEXTER + TC Tenet + DJ

Dylan Gers – Soaring, occasionally epic, prog tinged rock from a high end musicianship quotient as you’d imagine from the pedigree. Pink Floyd and Yes spring to mind but also something of the more progressive end of Thin Lizzy. Following in the footsteps of his guitar legend father Janick Gers (Iron Maiden), Teeside-born musician Gers is a master of the six-string. Emerging independently in April 2022, Dylan has spent the past four years developing a sound rooted in the influence of Led Zeppelin, Nick Drake, The Doors and Black Sabbath – with the spirit and presence of Jim Morrison informing both his lyrical perspective and artistic identity. Electric Face – Welcome to The Private World of Neon Tubes (the title of their debut EP, natch), a world run to perfection by this rather sophisticated punk rock three piece. A great kooky vibe and some splendid riffage. dEXTER – Paul Dexter’s kicking Basildon based band, once known as The Collective in another iteration, an institution on their manor, and always a reliable night out for some incisive indie rock, ranging from celebratory rockers to intricate Neo ballads. TC Tenet – these guys  are playing a well appointed classic rock come QOTSA style alt grunge via Black Keys rootsy grooves, which is luverly on the ears.
