Seven by Seven
2025-05-11 15:00 - 21:00, 2025-06-08 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.

Dirty Otter presents - Truck Violence
2025-05-11 19:30 - 22:00
Truck Violence (Montréal, QC) is a medley that wails its way through the bitters of modern Western Canadian
hardcore and folk, an honesty and shamelessness in disappointment that is both a comfort and a stern regard.
Starting in 2021 with a move from the prairies of Alberta to Montréal, guitarist-banjoist Paul Lecours and singer-poet
Karsyn Henderson, from sticks to city, have had to adapt whilst maintaining roots and authenticity. Also informed by
punk, shoegaze and sludge, their unique sound is the product of a multiple-project span that saw an array of sonic
changes, including through prior incarnations, No Cru5t and Truck. With the full-length release of Violence (July
5th, 2024 via Mothland), the route is set for the outfit’s crashing ode to their roots and violent betterment to continue
at full speed. Aiming to embrace the catharsis of hardcore, while commemorating their roots in folk and country
music, this debut long-player from the Montréal four-piece is concerned with the all-too-hushed addiction, abuse and
dysfunction in isolated country families. Highly recommended to fans of Show Me the Body, Chat Pile or The Chariot.

Gaelynn Lea live at Wharf Chambers
We are lucky to be hosting the wonderful Gaelynn Lea in Leeds for a third time, on tour sharing music from her Macbeth soundtrack album and other favourites.
Gaelynn Lea is a violinist, singer and disability advocate amongst a myriad of other amazing achievements she passionately shares with the world. Since coming to attention when awarded NPR Music’s Tiny Desk Contest in 2016, Gaelynn Lea has built a consistent reputation as a joyful force for good and togetherness, while captivating audiences around the world with her haunting original songs and new takes on traditional fiddle tunes.
One of Gaelynn’s biggest passions is promoting Disability Culture. She co-founded RAMPD [Recording Artists and Music Professionals with Disabilities] in 2022 and has since connected with d/Deaf and disabled artists globally, including Ruth Lyon and James Holt in the UK. She has also collaborated with artists as diverse as Michael Stipe, The Decemberists, and the industrial rock supergroup Pigface.
In 2022, Gaelynn contributed a bewitching soundtrack to the production of Macbeth on Broadway starring Daniel Craig and Ruth Negga. Now she will be touring the UK for the first time since 2019 to launch her soundtrack album Music from Macbeth, released thanks to a Whippoorwill Arts Fellowship. Alongside new music from the album, Gaelynn will be performing a wide selection of favourites from her back catalogue.

The third edition of Computer Club welcomes back our regular trinity of electronic explorers to the Wharf Chambers mainframe, whilst initiating Beau Beaumont into the Computer Club family. Continuing our pursuit of deep-listening dancefloor moments and improvised signal flow, this session reconfigures the night with B2Bs, AV illusions, and genre-resistant selections.
BEAU BEAUMONT (LIVE) – Fusing spatial texture and rhythmic dissonance, Beau’s live set traverses the outer edges of club energy and electroacoustic space. Expect hybrid forms and raw circuitry.
JAKE MEHEW + NILEHN (LIVE B2B) – A debut back-to-back performance from two modular minds. Jake’s patchwork sonics meet Nilehn’s Syntakt-driven brutalism in an improvised, hardware-only collaboration of deep techno, noise, and entrained chaos.
NIKNAK (DJ SET) – Returning to Computer Club with a reconstructed arsenal of futuristic breakbeats, turntablism, and dubby delays. Expect the unexpected from this genre-dismantling selector.
As always, visuals play a critical role. Our live AV system continues to evolve with each event — expanding in complexity, fidelity, and responsiveness. From raw signal feedback to generative illusions, the screen becomes a second stage.
Join us in the late-night command line for another deep dive into live electronic expression.

Eric Chenaux + support
2025-06-07 19:30 - 23:00
ERIC CHENAUX (France/Canada)
For nearly two decades, Eric Chenaux has been gently twisting songs into new shapes. Pairing what has been described by the Guardian as “one of the all-time great singing voices in popular music” with sparse, metronomic rhythms, the Canadian artist is capable of conjuring up songs that feel as familiar and well-trodden as standards. It’s through his spontaneous guitar playing and lightly abrasive pedal improvisation that they change, stretched into something stranger.
On a run of homespun records that began with 2015’s Skullsplitter, Chenaux has started to leave time behind, letting his songs stay for as long as they please. Vamping on simple, domestic melodies, his songs quietly unravel, tangled up in a kind of diffuse jazz music that stays patient, lies low, and drifts away. His guitar makes subtle interventions, warping the original thought that has carried us this far.
Drawing on folk, jazz, and noise, Chenaux’s music travels far while holding us in place. Last year, he released Delights of My Life, released as a trio alongside Phillipe Melanson and Ryan Driver. For this show, he’ll be performing solo.
NIKA TICCIATI
Leeds-based improviser Nika Ticciati leads on keys in a goopy, string-snapping performance for three, reeling along like-minded mavericks Iris Casling and Teruki Chan for additional double bass and drums delirium.
FONDANT
A rare outing for this cross-country trio, traversing beyond the footpath into thickets of poetry, cello and noise. Each possessing their own quietly brilliant mode of expression, the artists Fondant allow their individual crafts to overlap, overgrow and naturally entwine.
£8 advance / £12 on the door
