A Hatch Fundraiser: Live in Real Life

A Hatch Fundraiser: Live in Real Life

Tangible Experience Solutions LTD is thrilled to bring you a IRL Event Experience for a fantastic cause - your favourite DIY Hovel, Hatch.

Like many other venues and collectives, Covid-19 promptly put a stop to Hatch's operations back in March, and they've managed to scrape along across the summer, but the cupboard is now bare. As a volunteer run, communal space with absolutely no formal organisation or 'status' Hatch is unable to apply for any funding or support from anywhere. So now gigs in some format are possible, TESLTD thought it would be a wild idea to organise a fundraiser to get them through September. So here we are!

The Format / Setup

Sidney & Matilda has both an indoor space and covered yard, and stage setup is visible from both. There will be 40 tickets available per matinee for socially distanced benches. There's a bar with nice beer etc.

We've split the gig into two matinees - so you can buy a ticket for either - we'd rather you picked one (not both) as we're expecting it to busy and we'd like everyone to get a chance to see something.

Tickets are available for unwaged, waged and a little bit extra for anyone who is feeling generous and wants to donate a bit more to help Hatch out. Everyone is playing for free so it'll all be going to Hatch to keep them going. We will also organise a stream, which you can buy tickets for with a donation (of any amount). There will be merch available too.

The Bands

Matinee #1 - 1pm to 4pm

Phoneutrian

Creating beats, soundscapes, meditations and freakouts, Phoneutrian is a Sheffield-based musician part of the Interworld Media group.

Matinee #2 - 5pm to 8pm

COVID Rules

Do not come to the gig if you have Covid-19 or should be self isolating, or live with anyone high risk.

Social distance when moving around the space, and sit at tables in your bubbles.

Wash your hands, feel free to wear a mask.

Don't be a dick. We're not in our own space but we still uphold Hatch's values / approach.

BANK HOLIDAY SATURDAY! With live music from The Sickboy Method and Sinclair

A blistering line-up for bank holiday weekend continues with Sheffield nutters 'The Sickboy Method'. They will be joined by Manchester mad-heads 'Sinclair'. Two real class acts, that are quickly building strong fanbases and reputations across the North of England. Not to be missed.

The Sickboy Methodhttps://www.facebook.com/thesickboymethodband/

The Sickboy Method, a 4 piece high energy indie-punk band, from Sheffield.

Sinclairhttps://www.facebook.com/sinclairband/

Formed in 2020, Sinclair are a 5-piece alternative rock band from Manchester, UK. Drawing influence from a wide range of artists; from The Doors and Joy Division, to The Clash and Cage the Elephant, Sinclair’s sound is one of pure raw energy and distorted hazy tones. Driven by catchy guitar riffs, mesmerising melodies and robust, provoking vocals, along with tight and powerful drums and bass lines, each song takes on a life of its own, all consistently delivering honestly brutal lyrics and guitar solos to match.Since banding up, Sinclair have gigged at a wide variety of local venues and festivals, playing spots all around Manchester’s famous Northern Quarter and most recently playing a set at Manchester Club Academy. Their live shows are where their music shines the most, with each track delivering blow after blow of high energy performance and refined melodic composure.After spending time recording in the east Cheshire countryside, Sinclair are well under way with plans to release 3 freshly recorded singles, with details to be further announced and lots of excitement and anticipation behind them.4 Mancs and a Welshman, big songs with a bigger sound, hide your nan.

Open 14:00 - 02:00
