Marc has a debut session from new favourites Beak.

Debut session from new Riley favourites Beak.

Formed in 2009 in Bristol, Billy Fuller, Geoff Barrow and Matt Williams have released two LPs on Invada Records.

The band have a group of strict guidelines to the production of their music, both recording and writing. Their current release, , was written in twelve days in SOA Studio's in Bristol, and then recorded live with no overdubs or repairs and only using editing to help create the arrangements.

Billy Fuller worked in Bristol's top indie record shop Replay Records and has played with Fuzz Against Junk, Massive Attack, Robert Plant and Malakai. Matt Williams created Team Brick, and enjoys playing air drums on his bike and singing Latin prayer. Geoff Barrow is best known for his forming and production for Portishead but see's Beak as something completely different. 

It is going to be a unique, strange and beautiful session this evening. One not to be missed!
