Gender Trouble Makers: The films of Mirha-Soleil Ross
2026-01-22 19:00 - 23:00
“Gut-busting, ass-erupting and immoderately whorish” is how Mirha-Soleil Ross described her raw, unruly, and politically charged video work. Emerging in the ’90s as a sex worker, activist, and performance artist, Ross collaborated with t4t lover Xanthra MacKay and the Quebec Transexuals Association. Her tapes blur documentary, autobiography, and provocation, documenting trans and sex worker communities with care. TGirlsonFilm presents a rare screening of her vital video art — fierce meditations on gender, desire, animal rights, and reproductive politics. Gender troublemakers rejoice!
With a post-screening discussion between writer, historian, artist and friend of Ross, Morgan M Page and Jaye Hudson from TGirls On Film

Broken Shoulder
Neil has been running the Kirigirisu label out of Japan for just over 10 years now, but when he’s not releasing music from everyone else on this bill he also releases as Broken Shoulder. Droney, textural, spaced.
Yol
Don’t expect any yelling this time, Yol’s playing a no-vocal set, check his latest album on Bandcamp for what that might look like.
Territorial Gobbing
Expect some gobbing perhaps?
Thomas Carroll
It’s me, I might end up doing some sculpture-cum-field recording with a mylar sheet.

Seven by Seven
2026-01-11 15:00 - 21:00, 2025-12-14 15:00 - 21:00
Seven by Seven is a friendly open decks vinyl playing session. You can bring along and play us seven of your 7” 45rpm vinyl singles – hence Seven by Seven – or just come and listen to others play. The 7” 45rpm format is the only limitation. We don’t dictate the type of music – you can play whatever you want to, and we relish that variety!

No DJ skills are needed, and our ethos is – no pressure, no competition, no egos.

Please get there early to put your name down. We draw names out for the running order and later arrivals may be too late to be drawn. We also sometimes reduce the number of records that some people can play if we have high numbers attending – but we do try to fit in as many seven record sets as possible.

Seven by Seven is a non-commercial operation. We run our sessions purely for the joy of playing and listening to records as a shared experience.

Catbandcat's Catnip Party (with special guests Vipertime & Marco Woolf)
2025-12-18 20:00 - 23:00
Join Catbandcat for the launch of their catnip-inspired merch range, just in time to fill up your Christmas stockings! In celebration of this monumental occasion they will be playing a special headline set. The event will also feature performances from their animal friends:
Vipertime
Born in the snake pit of Leeds house parties, aggro-jazz four-piece Vipertime have earned a ferocious reputation making a series of incendiary appearances at venues and festivals across the UK, honing their craft while pushing their line up of saxophone, bass and twin drum sets to its sonic limits. Music of joy and rebellion.
“I wouldn’t mind hanging out somewhere that was going on” – Iggy Pop
Marco Woolf
Marco Woolf’s music can prove complex to categorise, known for his introspective lyrics, dreamlike storytelling, and carefully crafted instrumentation—each element given equal emotional weight. His critically acclaimed EP ‘Francine, i’ was hailed as “light, complex, rich and immediate” by Pan African Music Magazine, with its limited 12” vinyl selling out in just 24 hours. The project gained widespread support from BBC 6Music, Jazz FM, and international radio.

H.S.Heron Presents Martin Manning, TBC , Gladboy with Art + Lightshow
2025-12-13 19:00 - 23:00
Avant-Pop, Hypnagogia, Queer Punk, Rock and/ or Roll
Art and Light show
Gladboy
Gladboy have one of the underground’s most unique and frenetic live shows. Teetering on the edge of collapse, they are confounding – occasionally ear-piercing – but always melodic.
The band formed in 2017, starting their garage rock racket in a now-demolished eyesore in Norwich. In that time, they’ve cultivated a prolific live profile, supporting the likes of Westside Cowboy, Willie J Healey, English Teacher, The Orielles, Brix Smith Start (The Fall), Laundromat, The Cool Greenhouse and Jeffrey Lewis.
Press highlights include The Guardian, Far Out, DIY Magazine, as well as BBC Introducing and BBC Radio 6 Music.
Following a sold-out run supporting English Teacher’s sold out album tour for their Mercury Prize-winning debut This Must be Texas, Gladboy are back with a full length album on the horizon.

Martin Manning
Conjured from a dream, the multi-faceted Martin Manning emerges from our subconscious.
Haunting the waterways of Yorkshire with harps and broken drum machines, they recite poetry of the mother hill. These Avant Pop Megastars forge fractured dance music with pop at its hearth, evoking shades of Cabaret Volatire, Dean Blunt & Arthur Russell.
“What a year to be alive, as Martin Manning turns 45!”
Draags
Hyper-disassembled queer punk wonkcore is a direct sucker punch to capitalism and the oppressive state. They want everyone involved in a frenzied ecstasy of queer rage and to share a radical message of love and connection.
Confrontational and deranged but also inclusive and fun fun fun!
