Following their festival debut at the Liverpool International Music festival (LIMF) in 2019, Liverpool garage-blues rock band The Heavy North released their debut 4-track EP ‘Dive Bar Blues’ on limited edition 12” vinyl in December 2020
This year, The Heavy North released their long-awaited debut album ‘Electric Soul Machine’ on Saturday 23 rd April (Record Store Day) and have recently announced a UK headline tour in September 2022 including their biggest show to date at the Arts Club Theatre, Liverpool on Saturday 24 th

In the game for nearly 20 years now, Ruf Dug’s a true friend to the club and still one of the best to do it.
In the last year alone he’s been nominated for Track Of The Year at Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide Awards, been made one of the hosts of NTS’s flagship daily Soup To Nuts show, resumed his DJ schedule in fine style, and had his productions make their way into the record bags of Moxie, Moodymannn, Ben UFO, Jamz Supernova, Gilles Peterson, Bradley Zero and a ton more.
As a DJ he’s pretty much done it all – from Pikes to Panorama Bar, Gottwood to Glastonbury, Brilliant Corners to Barbarellas to Burning Man. Absolutely anything goes, Poolside Balearic pumpers rub up against dusty analogue dreamers, wrong-speed jungle, slamming Detroit electro, private press outsider pop, Ruffy’s own productions and who knows whatever else – and he makes it hang together perfectly.
Hit up Ruffy if you want a GOOD TIME!
Blood Wizard sits between the worlds of art, punk and folk. Influenced by the likes of Cate Le Bon and Arthur Russel, Blood Wizard was born out of a fascination with folk-lore and a desire to challenge their creative limits as a writer. “There’s almost something to live up to with the name Blood Wizard. You can’t have this name and not make eccentric music. It almost forces you to be Avant Garde.”
An act that straddles genres to create a sound uniquely their own, Blood Wizard’s brand of ‘Wonky Folk’ blends components of classic folk with this aforementioned avant garde to create an environment to which their distinctive character can wander freely. Drawing similarities to the narrative led by murmurings of Kurt Vile as well as the unpredictability of Crack Cloud, it’s less about fitting in for Burns and more about developing a world, where the mystique and sheer eccentricity of Blood Wizard can be fully let loose.
We are giving non-House and non-Techno, Disco not Disco, band-driven music a fresh pair of Sneaks. Every Tuesday, Nick, Peaky and special guests mix… Arthur Russell, Baxter Dury, Bodega, Blondie, Brian Eno, clash, Bowie, Diana Ross, Fat Whites, Fela Kuti, Grace Jones, Iggy Pop, Janaelle Monae, Khruangbin, LCD Soundsystem, Lizzy Mercier Descloux, Mac Demarco, MC5, Minor Threat, Parquet Courts, Pixies, Ram Jam, The Slits, Sugarcubes, Tame Impala, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, White Denim and Frank Zappa.
