AnotherVU bring their incredible multimedia tribute to The Velvet Underground + Nico – and their iconic shows with Andy Warhol – to Future Yard on Saturday 28th November 2026.

This project had long been an ambition for all of the band’s members, but when multi-instrumentalist Cam Forrester began producing Velvets–related content on YouTube in 2021 and subsequently built a strong following, real demand for a live show was evident, given the scarcity of footage of the original band.

After posting an online ad in 2022, multi-instrumentalist Kyle Hill joined on bass; guitarist Bobby Tamarali followed in December 2024, and drummer Ella Wallace-Manning in February 2025, completing the core lineup.

“We’re working on both accurately reproducing the Velvets’ seminal music, and recreating the groundbreaking multimedia shows they performed during their collaboration with Andy Warhol during 1966-1967.

Throughout 2025 we’ve self-funded rehearsals, investing in vintage instruments, amps and lighting equipment, and even hand-building discontinued items in order to faithfully recreate these culturally significant events for a modern audience – especially those who never experienced this pioneering moment in art and music history firsthand. Since rock and roll no longer dominates the cultural landscape as it did in the 1960s, we invite people of all ages and backgrounds – musicians, students, creatives, long-time fans and curious newcomers alike – to rediscover the excitement of an almost entirely analogue multimedia event.

Inspired by Andy Warhol’s multimedia vision and original EPI lighting designer Danny Williams’ electrical innovations – which were influential to the development of psychedelic light shows, and later disco, rave, and contemporary stage lighting – our light shows will consist of manually controlled strobes (operated in rhythm with the music), as well as coloured spot lamps, aimed at our custom-built reproduction of Warhol’s antique mirror ball, creating orbiting polka dot reflections all around.

Additionally, a liquid light show will produce psychedelic convection current visuals against the rear stage wall, alongside slide/moiré projections, and the sole digital element of the show, which is new Another VU film projections (replacing the original 16mm Warhol films of the Velvets).

The result will be a mesmerising explosion of electrifying sound and kaleidoscopic imagery – just like the original, and now legendary EPI.” – Cam Forrester

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.

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.
