Although September often brings with it the chill of autumn and the, sadly inevitable, freshers’ flu, Wharf Chambers was buzzing with warmth on Wednesday night, as the second instalment of Bloom Sessions ~ Summer ‘21 filled the air with its gorgeous line-up of groovy tunes and good vibes, helping us cling on to summer’s sweetContinue reading “Live Review: September // Summer ’21 ft.

September – The Sound of Modesty
Here at Bloom Sesh we are anything but inconsistent… yes, we closed the last show with some fierce rock energy through FIKA and for September, our finale will be no different. Horns in the air people… The Sound of Modesty is here! Perhaps one of the coolest pseudonyms out there, The Sound of Modesty isContinue reading “September – The Sound of Modesty”
September – Marnie Glum
We may be a little biased, but Leeds has an incredibly supportive network of musicians. You’ll often see people in various different bands, or you might stumble across photos of several top-class songwriters collaborating; basically, you’ll see line ups containing friends, colleagues and collaborators (*cough cough* like ours). Charlotte Lynch is a Leeds-based musician whoContinue reading “September – Marnie Glum”
September – Sam Brown
You may well recognise our first artist playing for Bloom Sessions at Wharf Chambers in September! She’s been a regular at Sela Bar, as well as busking on the streets across Leeds and recently played NYMAZ’s Rural Fest 2021. However, if you’ve been unlucky enough to miss out, don’t worry… we’ve got you – SamContinue reading “September – Sam Brown”
August – FIKA
The time has come to introduce you to the final artists for our first gig of Summer ’21… fasten your seatbelts, we’re going punk.

Being present in the moment and having fun with friends is taken literally byContinue reading “August – FIKA”
August – Sofa King
When you type ‘Sofa King’ into your search engine of choice, up comes a plethora of questionable showrooms selling you the next best pleather three-seater. We’re not here for that though, rather we’re looking for the lesser known, albeit much more original, ‘pop obsessed transgender individual’ under the same name. Our Sofa King is fun,Continue reading “August – Sofa King”
August – Gordian Stimm
Often you come across an artist whose music is so manifold that is defies explanation, it’s hard to put into words how these sounds materialise without it sounding like a sentence from Lewis Carroll. Gordian Stimm, our opener for August 25th, has a foot in this realm as her music often transcends the expected orContinue reading “August – Gordian Stimm”
