Organised by Oxford Contemporary Music.

Fixers & Wap Wap Wow
Saturday 30 October, 7pm
£3, booking essential on 01865 813800

An evening with experimental psychedelic-pop quintet, Fixers, and support band  Wap Wap Wow . Drawing influence from Brian Wilson and Van Dyke Parks, Fixers took shape from a collection of bedroom demos in 2006, utilising multi-tracking to construct vast layers of echo-laden harmonies. Based in Peckham and fronted by Oxford cellist and singer Rose Dagul, Wap Wap Wow are developing their own original sense of folk mixed with indie choir, string quartet, percussion, loops and pedals. Organised by Seb Thomas.
