Uche Yara

UCHE YARA: A post-club experience

UCHE YARA’s music is raw, electrifying, and deeply emotional.

Fusing influences from alt pop, R&B and club music she creates a unique sonic universe ranging from hypnotic intensity to delicate intimacy. On stage, UCHE is a one-woman force of sound and movement: with her voice, guitar, and body as instruments she builds something truly magnetic, blurring the lines between live performance and club experience.

BODYSCANNER – the debut album of UCHE YARA – feels like a club record viewed from an unexpected angle. It explores the tension between how we perceive ourselves from within and how we are constantly scanned, judged, and interpreted by the outside world. It reflects the intimate act of turning that scanner inward — observing your own body, identity, and emotions with the same intensity. A must see for everyone drawn to left-field pop, R&B, club culture, and movement.

Iguana Death Cult

With Iguana Death Cult’s latest iteration, the band laments on personal stories of hardship and doubt whilst fixing their gaze on the burning world around them.

Guitars, percussion, synths and a whole lot of soul-searching is all that Iguana Death Cult needed for their recent resurrection. As part of a personnel change the band gained a strong new line-up, including the dazzlingly virtuous drummer Uri Rennert (previously in Häxxan and Brian Jonestown Massacre). This new era of Iguana Death Cult’s existence is channeling their earlier punk and garage style while simutanously feeling unmistakeably like a product of today. It is characterised by razorsharp and highly rythmic riffing by Tobias Opschoor and the relentless drumming by Uri Rennert. By the ever-groovy and effortlessly cool percussion and synths by Jimmy de Kok and by the hefty yet heartfelt voice of frontman Jeroen Reek, guiding the listener through feelings of despair, anger and solace, in that very order. Iguana Death Cult is a band who have made quite the miles in the last decade. Started as a group of young friends in 2014 wanting to make rock ‘n roll, the band has risen to great heights including touring with Osees, Frankie and the Witchfingers, supporting Jack White, playing SXSW, Levitation Festival and Desert Daze and doing multiple successful US tours.

On their new record Guns Out, released via Greenway Records, Iguana Death Cult is excersing self-reflection on multiple levels: by breaking with the more indie-like, art-punk-funk sound of their previous album (Echo Palace, released through Innovative Leisure in 2023), returning to a more ‘in your face’ punchy garage rock style. Secondly, by confronting a behaviour of escapism, and the toll that way of living takes on the self. And finally by ways of questioning their ways of writing music, returning to a faster, more spontaneous process. Guns Out is an album that’s tough and rigid on the outside but soft and contemplative on the inside. Moreover, it is the story of a band coming to terms with their own existence in the world they live in.

Grandmaster Flash: “4 Elements” Tour

Born and raised in the South Bronx, Grandmaster Flash is inarguably one of Hip Hop’s original innovators.

In the early 1970s, Grandmaster Flash was the first DJ to use the turntable as a musical instrument by placing his fingers on the vinyl and perfecting beat looping. It’s no surprise that The New York Times calls him Hip Hop’s first virtuoso.

His determination to manipulate music led to innovations that changed the trajectory of Hip Hop music and culture: the Quik Mix Theory and the wafer – or what is now commercially known as the slipmat.

Today, he’s the voice of an entire generation of 1970s Hip Hop pioneers and reminds us of that decades influence through his tours, weekly livestreams, lectures and other projects. Grandmaster Flash is at once a historian, a storyteller, and a cultural force.

Selector: Mark Leckey

The series will launch with Turner Prize-winning artist Mark Leckey guest curating a range of events between 10th and 13th June, including an artist ‘In Conversation’ talk and three fascinating live events, under the title of Music From The Age Of Spiritual Machines.

Selector will explore the musical inspirations on Mark Leckey’s work, through conversation and performance, celebrating the influence music has on his art. Since the latter half of the 20th Century the relationship between music and art in contemporary culture has become increasingly entwined. Artists across genres are inspiring each other, breaking boundaries and experimenting with their practices. Selector is an opportunity to witness these artistic collisions, in a shared, immersive experience.

Event details below. Tickets now available for each event, with discounts for Tate Members.

Modern Marriage Album Launch

Sharp-tongued Merseyside indie rock trio ‘Modern Marriage’ are delighted to announce the release of their debut album ‘’Grim Up North.’ The album showcases the band’s signature blend of chimey, Rickenbacker-driven guitar pop and twisted, highly observational storytelling. The songwriting explores the weird, the wonderful and the mundanity of everyday life; from the petty-crime-noir of opener ‘Terry’s Last Fag,’ the misadventures of an octogenarian banjo player in ‘Gerry and His Pacemaker,’ and culminating with the Velvet Underground-meets-Crosby Stills and Nash epic You Can’t Send Yer Ma To Blackpool’ – the story of trying and failing to combine football away days with family holidays.

“Modern Marriage washed up one day on the tide in the Mersey estuary (somewhere close to Rock Ferry) and almost immediately started attracting attention as one of Merseyside’s most original and organically unpretentious bands, blending infectious melodies with the humour, grit and storytelling of their Northern roots. Formed in 2021, the bandmade their onstage debut at Liverpool’s legendary Cavern Club and have shared bills with Half Man Half Biscuit, Edgar Jones, Alan McGee and many more, building a reputation for high-energy sets packed with dry wit and crowd-pleasing charm.”

The band are delighted and honoured to release the album on Skeleton Records – the legendary Birkenhead-based punk/indie label, recently revived after more than 40 years – and the album is available for purchase on LP, CD and digital download. The album is also live on Spotify and all other major streaming services.

Neal Morse – Absolute Solo

Prog legend Neal Morse joins us at Future Yard on Sunday 28th June 2026.

A founding member of Spock’s Beard, he later went on to form Transatlantic with Dream Theater’s co-founder and drummer Mike Portnoy, the Flower Kings’ Roine Stolt, and Marillion’s Pete Trewavas. He also later formed Yellow Matter Custard, Flying Colors, and the Neal Morse Band alongside Portnoy.

The Absolute Solo shows offer a truly unique live experience showcasing his stunning musicianship on piano and acoustic guitar, featuring songs from all phases of his career with no fixed setlist and spontaneous song choices.

You can expect to hear classics from the Spock’s Beard era, highlights from Transatlantic & Flying Colors, as well as fan favorites from his solo catalogue that retain the epic and spiritual compositions in intimate arrangements alongside rarely performed and surprise selections.

These concerts showcase the essence of Neal Morse’s songwriting — emotional, virtuosic, and deeply personal.
