PREVIEWS GIG VLURE 15/06 - Future Yard Vlure Hotly-tipped Glasgow five-piece VLURE make their Merseyside debut with a socially distanced show at Future Yard. The post-punk noisemakers dropped single Shattered Faith on Permanent Creeps records in 2020 and promise to continue their ascent with a confronting mélange of synthy hooks, dub sensibilities and forthright lyrics. Future Yard has a comprehensive social distancing policy offering a safe experience to giggoers as the last of the Covid restrictions remain. These shows precede a busy season of gigs commencing at the venue in August. CLUB Sasha 25/06 - Invisible Wind Factory After the success of the Bramley Moore Dock pilot test shows, Circus continue to make up for lost time with a special night at Invisible Wind Factory this month. House stalwart SASHA headlines with a four-hour set, with locals JAMES ORGAN and LAUREN LO SUNG reliably bringing the beats in support. Taking place across the two floors of the venue, LOLIFE and SIAN BENNETT also join the party. North Wales native SASHA has an international reputation but has sustained ties with the North West, making this the ideal booking as we emerge from lockdown onto the dancefloor. ONLINE Stock Footage 27/05-08/07 - Kazimier Stockroom Dialect - Photo: Andrew Ellis A TV show with a difference is being broadcast from the Kazimier Stockroom. Live sets from local artists such as STEALING SHEEP, PODGE and THE ALEPH is coupled with chat and games for Stock Footage, an internet series due to begin on 27th May. Feature artist in issue 113 of Bido Lito! DIALECT is the opening act to feature on the show. The sound artist, whose latest album Under~Between is winning rave reviews, will play a set and answer questions about his artistic process and more. Episodes of the show will be broadcast weekly online into July. EXHIBITION The Last Bohemian: Augustus John Until 30/08 - Lady Lever Art Gallery This brand-new exhibition showcases around 40 works by one of Britain’s most iconic and controversial artists. Having moved to Liverpool in 1901, the new exhibition explores his time in the city which greatly influenced his life and career. Often described as bohemian, John’s paintings were uncompromising and famously captured the true character and personality of each sitter. Taking the spotlight, Lord Leverhulme’s infamous ‘beheaded’ portrait examines the extraordinary events that provoked Lever to destroy his own portrait and when leaked to the press, caused outrage and protests.

THEATRE Y’MAM: Young Man’s Angry Movements 16-26/06 - Everyman Theatre In an incongruous combination, Majid Mehdizadeh’s solo show fuses spoken word, music and movement with an examination of modern masculinity. Y’MAM (Young Man’s Angry Movements) is an autobiographical exploration of the anger, anxieties and fantasies that provide the foundation for toxic masculinity. The play will run at the Everyman from 16th to 26th June, inviting audiences to consider the cultural pressures that create modern men and the love required to overcome them. Y’MAM FESTIVAL Liverpool Biennial 2021 - Second Chapter Until autumn – Various venues Liverpool Biennial continues its diverse roster of multidisciplinary art as it finally opens the full exhibition programme for the 11th edition, The Stomach and the Port. Curated by Manuela Moscoso, the UK’s biggest contemporary visual arts festival will see nine lead venues – including Lewis’, FACT and Bluecoat – showcase up to 50 artists’ interpretations of the body and their experiences of being in the world. On 27th May and 17th June, the festival’s Liquid Club events continue with New York-based artist Xaviera Simmons and Daniel Steegmann Mangrané, who will explore the working practices of society and the sounds of the Brazilian rainforest respectively. Advanced booking is recommended, with one ticket per visitor, per venue required for visiting multiple Liverpool Biennial exhibitions at different venues. GIG Rachel Newton 25/06 - Storyhouse, Chester Musically combining the past and the present, singer and harpist RACHEL NEWTON incorporates ancient poems and ballads into her contemporary sounds and compositions, creating a rich and experimental melodic folklore. In June, Newton presents her most recent album To The Awe at Storyhouse, an auditory exploration of the female experience throughout history. The record is a tribute to the women who have inspired Newton throughout her life and reflects her recent work around the representation of women in the music industry. Pieced together throughout lockdown, with vocals recorded in Newton’s bedroom wardrobe, To The Awe will finally receive the audience it deserves. GIG Rossa Murray & The Blowin’ Winds 5/06 - The Atheneum Rossa Murray & The Blowin’ Winds In the grand and unusual surrounds of Liverpool’s Athenaeum newpromoters-on-the-scene Bed and Breakfast host two hugely promising talents with ROSSA MURRAY & THE BLOWIN’ WINDS and LYDIAH. The socially distanced and seated show is part of a series of gigs taking place around the city, all in venues away from the beaten track. Alt folk rock favourite Rossa headlines this June show having picked up a name for himself over recent years. Emerging star Lydiah is also winning many fans with her captivating performances. It’s a line-up that is fitting for the plush environs of the iconic venue. PREVIEWS 43
