Faetooth

Spawning from Los Angeles, Faetooth forges “fairy-doom”: an eclectic amalgamation of doom metal, sludge, and shoegaze.

From spellbinding melodies to guttural shrieks, Faetooth’s music conjures a looming atmosphere offering you a glimpse into their mystifying realm.

Having recently released the ferociously beautiful track “Death of Day”, Faetooth returns with their sophomore album, Labyrinthine, and a show with us here at Future Yard on 3rd February 2026.

Utah Saints

Utah Saints have been making music, DJ’ing and playing gigs around the globe since the birth of House Music.

The world renowned duo have released 9 Top 40 UK hits, 4 of which hit the Top 10 and sold over 2 million records worldwide (equivalent to 800m+ streams).

Precariously walking the tightrope between genres and the underground and mainstream, Utah Saints roots are firmly in electronic dance music.

​Having met in a club in Leeds at the beginning of the rave movement in the UK they’ve subsequently established themselves as pioneers of sampling in dance music.

They return to Birkenhead on Friday 29.05.2026 for a special show that we’re incredibly excited for.

TOUCAN

TOUCAN is the funk, pop and soul project of Irish songwriter Conor Clancy, emerging as one of the most exciting new voices to break out of Ireland. With brass-driven grooves, velvet-rich vocals and songs that bridge Motown soul and modern pop, he’s the kind of artist built for festival stages and sold-out venues.

Since his breakout single We Fell For Miles, TOUCAN has sold out headline shows in Dublin, London, Bristol, Cork and beyond, and clocked over 5 million streams to date. UK crowds have already felt his live spark through high-energy sets at Love Supreme, Meltdown, and Mostly Jazz Funk & Soul. He’s supported icons including Nile Rodgers & CHIC, James Blunt and Durand Jones & The Indications, as well as The Average White Band at London’s Royal Albert Hall. Most recently, he joined Daði Freyr on his European tour.

Now, with brand-new music on the horizon, TOUCAN is announcing tour dates across the UK and Ireland. Expect sweaty dancing, singalongs, and a sound as timeless as it is fresh.

April Moon + Friends

APRIL MOON return for a special winter edition of their Americana showcase, and they’ve pulled out all the stops for another spectacular bill of the finest acts around.

Combining their irresistibly charming, boot-stompin’ tunes with intertwined twangy and jangly guitars, powerful vocal harmonies and a kick drum made from an old suitcase, Jaime April and Jason Moon make up the alt-country / Canadiana duo APRIL MOON. Known for their fun, well crafted songwriting, these two play the hell out of their instruments, leaving toes tapping, cheeks aching from smiling, and spirits lifted sky-high. Growing up on the wild prairies beside the North Saskatchewan River in Canada, embracing the open road became a necessity to travel between venues and the pair haven’t put down roots since, splitting their time between several countries a year and living out of a cool campervan they call ‘The Clubhouse’.

Support comes from Jukehouse Junkies, Megan Lee, Vox Americana, and Alice Ashe.

Doors at 4:30pm. Tickets on sale now.
