# Event Details - **Event Name**: The Early Years + Sennen - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 19 Nov, 2026 at 07:30 pm (+00:00) - **Event Description**: Delighted to be one of the handful of venues who will be hosting a very special co-headline show by The Early Years and Sennen later this year. Now reunited as labelmates on the always brilliant Sonic Cathedral records, both bands grew out of the shoegaze adjacent scene of the early 2000s – the former more influenced by krautrock and drone, the latter combining post-rock and harmonies – but they’ve both been silent for the best part of a decade. Until now. The Early Years released their long-awaited third album, Modern Moonlight, at the end of May to great acclaim, while Sennen are also gearing up to share their first new material in over a decade. The Early Years formed in East London in 2005 and have released three albums, each ten years apart: 2006’s self-titled debut for Beggars Banquet, 2016’s II, named as one of Uncut’s Greatest Albums of the 2010s, and this year’s long-awaited Modern Moonlight. They’ve been remixed by the late, great Andrew Weatherall, praised by Brian Eno and toured with RIDE. Their live shows are the stuff of legend, and this small run of dates will be their first for over EIGHT YEARS!. Praise for Modern Moonlight: “Rich productions that channel Joy Division, A Certain Ratio and shimmering, DFA-style grooves. A multi-layered treat, and their finest album yet” – Electronic Sound “The band’s one-album-per-decade output rate may be lamentable, but at least The Early Years compensate for their ack of productivity with a firm handle on quality control” – Uncut Sennen formed in Norwich in 2002 and released their hugely acclaimed debut album Widows in 2005. Its blend of post-rock soundscapes and Teenage Fanclub harmonies made it stand out, and they went on to release another four albums, including the classic ‘Where the Light Gets In’ and toured extensively over the following years. Their most recent album was 2016’s First Light, but other than three dates to promote a reissue of Widows in 2021 they’ve not been out on tour since. Praise for Widows: “Fuses post-rock time signatures with the ethereal beauty of early Ride or Chapterhouse” – Under The Radar “One of the best shoegaze records of all time” – Resident Music Tickets are a mere £12.50 in advance – available from Seetickets. Futhermore, if you are under the age of 25, on a low income or struggling with increases in the cost of living, you can pick up an ‘Art is for Everyone’ ticket for just £5.
