Irreverent and idiosyncratic, the out-there northern crooner comes to town!

Mik Artistik’s Ego Trip performs at Future Yard on Saturday 10th May.

A poet, performer, artist and comedian, Mik spouts lyrics, creates chaos, plays air-crook lock(!), and all-out entertains over the top of an exquisite layer of rock, soul, funk, and punk created by partner in crime Jonny Flockton on guitar. Delightful, frightening, strange and hysterically funny, Mik throws shapes and straws, and croons like a dream – sometimes.

Expect to be delighted and unnerved in equal measure as we present one of the most interesting, unpredictable, and exciting acts you’re likely to see this side of the Mersey.

A spellbinding collaboration between two musical powerhouses.

Finch and Ní Bhriain create a spellbinding musical dialogue where traditional and contemporary elements converge in a breathtaking celebration of musical synergy, taking listeners on a captivating journey on the wings of the bees across the Irish Sea, inspired by the cultures of their home countries.

An experimental folk songwriter, singer and producer, Joshua takes influence from alternative electronica and Irish folk, chopping and blending them with a mixture of found sounds, world music and unorthodox production methods.

His third album, ‘Teeth Of Time’ (out 17.01.25), sits comfortably and confrontationally between the alt-folk realms of Bon Iver and Sufjan Stevens while retaining the indie singer-songwriter and traditional folk elements of Josh’s signature songwriting.
