Alula Down bring their unique blend of improvisation, collage, drone, field recording, sparsity - silence - fragility, noise, dialogue and textured soundscape to Sharmanka for May’s music event - all of which is sure to shine amidst Eduard Bersudsky’s marvellous mechanical sculptures.
The duo comprised of Kate Gathercole & Mark Waters often explore folk song, where many traditional and vernacular forms illuminate dispossession and inequality. Part of The Weirdshire Society, Kate and Mark support local shows featuring folk, left-field and experimental live music, contributing to the DIY music ecosystem. They also run seasonal community folk song choirs in Herefordshire.

PRESS ABOUT ALULA DOWN:

“A folk interpretation of Can doesn’t feel too fanciful a descriptor.” - Noel Gardener / The Quietus, 2025
“…gorgeous folky brunt. Brilliant music.” - Byron Coley / The Wire, 2024
“What shines through the most here is the band’s deep connection to the land under their feet.” - Patrick Clarke / The Quietus, 2024
“These albums resonate with and helped to inspire our treatment of the Thames on our new album, and hold a quality both eternal and contemporary ...” - Shovel Dance Collective, 2022
“Post-rock and ambient fans will relish the shape-shifting textures. Gathercole’s voice is featherlight and meaningful, recalling Vashti Bunyan and late 60s private-press folk, tethering the listener to every syllable.” - Jude Rogers / The Guardian, 2020
