SUMMARY:TOM VECK - THE 5 STAR COMEDY MUSIC EXPERIENCE!
DESCRIPTION:Often compared to the likes of Flight of the Conchords\, Tim Minchin\, and Bo Burnham\, Tom Veck is a hilarious and inventive musical force who effortlessly blends the relatable with the ridiculous and the thought provoking. His five-star\, sellout show at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2023 drew widespread acclaim and had him put forward for Best Newcomer by The Space UK. Alongside the skilful and captivating delivery of his unique songs\, a Tom Veck show is full of surprises\, including the world’s crappest raffle (The Naffle)\, the Confessional Music Box (packed with real-life confessions from strangers turned into one-minute songs)\, and much\, much more. \nhttps://www.mindfulness-now.com/what-the-veck

SUMMARY:BOUBACAR SAMAKE & ALOKA
DESCRIPTION:Boubacar Samake\, son of the late Malian music legend Sibiri Samake\, carries forward the deep spiritual tradition of Mali’s donso (hunter) music — a lineage of ritual melodies and rhythms played for courage\, healing\, and connection to the natural world. A virtuoso of the ngoni\, the plucked lute at the heart of donso music\, Boubacar is also one half of electro-afro innovators Siraba. He performs in this new line-up with Louis Campbell (electric guitar\, from alt-folk duo Spafford Campbell)\, Ben Nicholls (bass) and master percussionist Seydou Kienou from Burkina Faso\, whose djembe\, calabash and karagnan bring a visceral\, ancient pulse. Together they reframe this ancestral sound in a hypnotic\, blues-tinged dialogue that bridges West African tradition and modern experimentation. \nAloka is a young singer-songwriter from London but now living in Bristol. Growing up surrounded by music\, Aloka has been inspired from a young age to take up singing. She has carved out a unique sound\, drawing inspiration from neo-soul\, dub\, hip-hop and jazz. Her soaring vocals and heartfelt lyrics resonate with audiences and capture the hearts of listeners.
