‘Eyam’, the solo project of musician Max Macmillan, has been sharing his music with Manchester’s audiences since late 2020.

Through a melting pot of folk, rock, punk and classical influences, Eyam’s work has quickly gained a reputation within the local music scene. With epic song lengths, unconventional song structures, and visual lyricism, his work draws comparison to the likes of Neutral Milk Hotel, Joanna Newsom, and The Microphones. Eyam’s music aims to take the audience to a new world, exploring ideas of yearning, love, obsession, grief, fear, nature, and time.

Since 2021, Eyam has been performing live around many of Manchester’s venues. Just bearing an acoustic guitar, he has opened for several local and touring bands. With this experience and audience, anticipation has built for his debut headline show, on March 21st 2024, at The Fitzgerald in Manchester.

Eyam’s debut release is currently being recorded, and will be released within the coming year.

Heart on sleeve and tongue in cheek, candid and silly, Mathew Kerry is a bespectacled singer-songwriter from Leeds currently based in Manchester. He is always writing and performing, and often forgets to eat.

Tallulah Guard (they/them) has been writing songs since childhood and playing guitar since they were 14. Having moved from London to Manchester in 2019 to study Social Anthropology, they got stuck into the open mic scene.

Their first handful of singles chart a course of artistic and personal development. Tallulah started hitting their stride in 2023 with "Burn" - a fizzy, moreish exploration of self-sabotage that landed them their first spin on BBC Introducing Manchester.

With an ability to fuse introspection and catchy melodies, they draw on elements of folk, alternative rock and pop, crafting songs that get under your skin.

Isabel Williamson is a professional cellist based in Manchester who specialises in applying her formidable skill and creativity across genres. Her powerful musical instincts, natural skill at communication and pure joy in music-making make her an asset to any live performance, and uniquely well placed to bridge the pop/classical worlds and bring artists' visions to life in the studio.

Her own original compositions for cello and loop pedal are inspired by an eclectic mix of post-rock, ambient and folk music, fueled by a musical imagination which needed to be freed from the limitations of four strings.
