STICK IN THE WHEEL

Nicola Kearey & Ian Carter have been making music as Stick In The Wheel since 2013.

The radical East London duo are known for their intense live shows exploring the raw holler of folk, synths, spoken word and intricate guitar fuzz. They present full-force reworkings of centuries-old work-songs with fragments of ancient texts that speak to contemporary issues of class – an inherently political act.

Their relentless approach to questioning traditional music forms is matched only by the energy that they bring to it. Full of hope and resistance, they continue to push forward contemporary roots music, whilst celebrating music from our collective histories – conjuring the past to point toward the future.

Supports are LAUREL UZIELL and PHIL STEVENS

Laurel Uziell is a poet, and a singer of unaccompanied folk songs. Phil Stevens sings and plays ukulele. They are both excellent!

At The Ivy House, London’s first community-owned pub.

Tickets are £18 advance, £20 on the door (cash or BACS only) 

Door 6pm. Live music starts 7pm and finishes at 10pm.

Please be aware that whilst our events are held in The Ivy House's  beautiful Grade 2 listed ballroom, this is a pub, so there may be some  background noise from adjoining bars. We and the pub management  have done our best to minimise this, however as this is a listed building there are restrictions on what kinds of soundproofing can be done. We hope you understand.
