Tuesday Night Live: THE SILVER RESERVE + GEMMA GATES
Doors 7pm Music 7.15pm
THE SILVER RESERVE: Matthew Sturgess, who performs as ‘The Silver Reserve’, plays delicate, sparse music on a classical guitar, crafting intricate melodies around thoughtful and evocative lyrics. At times creating dense, layered atmospherics, this is music that doesn’t rush and takes its sweet, sad time to unfurl and sneak under the skin.
Live quotes:
“I have fallen in love with The Silver Reserve. Songs of warmth and beauty that scratch at the inside of your heart. In a world that sits heavy on your chest, this is music that reminds you how to breathe.” Thea Gilmore (Cooking Vinyl)
“Blending emotive, affecting lyrics and spacious delicately crafted guitar work, these beguiling songs hold a depth of hidden treasures.” – Marc Walton (Seven Arts)
“Quietly spellbinding.” – Andy Brown (Soundlab)
“I really love Matthew’s stuff. His music has always been gorgeous but live he’s better than ever. The Brudenell show was pretty much a masterclass on every level.” Thomas White (The Waeve, The Electric Soft Parade) on opening set for The Waeve in Leeds.
GEMMA GATES: Gemma is a singer-songwriter currently based in Leeds, UK. Originally from Belfast (Ireland), she has been making music her whole life, and was brought up listening to Irish folk music. Influenced by this and artists such as Laura Marling and the Staves, Gemma’s songwriting uses rich harmonies and emotional lyricism to share her own personal journey through the world.
