Been to one of our events before? 3 Concerts in 1 Night. Live Visuals - 1 Ticket. Come for the entire event - It's all about the journey.
Our events are unusual - we build a journey that escalates from Act 1 to Act 2 (A duo or Trio), and culminates with a band to end the night high. First time here? Have a look at epic videos of our past events: Last Autumn's Act 3 Artists ,

Act 1:
PATRICIA ATZUR
We are always a bit giddy with excitement when we introduce new artists to you--our supportive community--in one of our main events. Patricia plays both acoustic and electric guitars, giving her music a sort of dreamy blend of electronica and folk with a pinch of jazz and rock.
Patricia Atzur is a composer and guitarist based in Barcelona. Despite often being compared to Nick Drake, her music combines a variety of styles and influences that has ended up giving way to what we can only describe as a kinda “dream folk” or “oneiric folk” universe. The songs from her debut EP Seasons led her to be the winner of the "Portautors" 2020 singer-songwriter competition, and with her debut album “Quiet Room” she has performed at international fairs such as FOCUS Wales (UK).
Don't miss her set. We would love for you to experience her music. Spotify | YouTube | Instagram
Act 2:
GRANNY WITH BONGOS
We have quite a story to share with you about THIS band. Their band name, "Granny with Bongos" is taken from the famous quote of Mark E Smith from band, The Fall, when he said: "...If it's me and yer granny on bongos, it's the Fall" -- this he said, after his band had so many changes to musical members--to imply--who cares who's creating the music, as long as it's there?!
Lead Singer Coral adds: "...Which is similar to how we feel and so we called ourselves exactly that, meaning we are not Grannies with Bongos, but we make music, and have a great time doing so, which is really important to us! It also allows us to focus on a good show instead of focusing on who is playing what!" Novel idea. Love it. Our ears are in for a psychedelic taste treat.
Act 3
The VIL VEINS
The VIL VEINS is an emerging Barcelona-based band that just released their first single Paradise. Recently seen performing in front of the iconic Arc de Triomf in Barcelona, the audience grooved non-stop to The VIL VEINS combining 1970s style hard rock riffing with alternative rock. To the unitiated, the band feels like a melding of Queens of The Stone Age and Smashing Pumpkins, with a dash of Audioslave for fun.
Yes, this is a trio with big guitars, loud drums, and epically catchy choruses. Made up of an unlikely trio of a NZ-Filipino Lead Singer & Guitarist, a Brazilian Bass player and a Mallorcan Drummer, the band brings a unique blend of cultures and musical influences. Their sound is an energetic fusion of garage rock with blues and stoner rock influences, citing Qotsa and Royal Blood as key influences.
Royal Blood is remarkable for conjuring up a sound many rock bands bigger in both size and stature can only dream of. This we hear with Dylan Cloud’s guitar riffs, Bass by Max Campos, and Drums by Toni Capo Quetglas. Dylan’s voice is raw and powerful, adding a layered texture to their unique sound.
Precise and creative at the same time: Toni is mesmerising behind the drums, treating each fill and cymbal with impunity. With recorded songs and an EP underway, expect more about Vil Veins captivating audiences with their fuzzy, high-energy live performances.
