SATURDAY / BIRKENHEAD TOWN HALL

Abusing, evading, and obliterating 20 years of whimsical pop trends, Jane Weaver’s experience as a truly independent and resilient songwriter and sound-carrier is something that commands respect and inspiration in equal measures. A sonic palette as broad as any artist on the Future Now billing, her ventures into psych folk, electronica, experimental rock and alt-pop across a two decade  solo career is a true sight (and sound) to behold.

She joins us in Birkenhead this summer once again recalibrating her singular journey in the British musical landscape with ‘Love In Constant Spectacle’, perhaps her most open-hearted, direct and intimate collection of material yet.

Yet, the foundations of Weaver’s sound are still evident – lush motorik drums, pulsating bass, custom modded synths and exotic fuzz pedals – but the stream is awash with scrabble piece poetry and Letraset lullabies leading to lush escapism, the free abandon that you’d associate with free jazz and the avant-garde. This is the poetic vision of one woman only, turning a new chapter, erecting a new scaffold, drawing empty landscapes as we slowly watch new colours, codes shapes and languages fill the frame.

Jane performs in Birkenhead Town Hall on Saturday 24th August.
