# Event Details - **Event Name**: Dark Matter presents Sister Ray Davies + Warm Parts + ADRA - **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 19 Apr, 2026 at 07:30 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: Upstairs live room £10 + bf Skiddle The brilliantly named SISTER RAY DAVIES will be appearing at Golden Lion Todmorden on Sunday 19 April as part of a UK tour which sees them supporting Chapterhouse & Acid Mothers Temple at their recently announced (and sold out) shows. Although based in Alabama, SISTER RAY DAVIES excellent debut album 'Holy Island' (released on Sonic Cathedral) is a concept album about the ancient religious outpost off the coast of North East England and was inspired by the likes of Slowdive, Ride, Galaxie 500, Yo La Tengo and Talk Talk. Praise for Holy Island: “A deft, clever, enchanting debut” – Uncut “Some of Holy Island is danceable, some is dreamy, and some is pure atmosphere” – AllMusic “Adroitly blurs a lot of intriguing boundaries” – Freq “The krauty ‘Iona’ comes on like a long-lost Spacemen 3 outtake, I especially like the shimmery fuzz of ‘Aidan’ and the delay pedal disco of ‘Rowans’. It sounds great even if you know nothing about holy islands” – Moonbuilding “The top-notch Holy Island nods to mid-period Flying Saucer Attack, Souvlaki-era Slowdive, maximum shimmer Ride and motorik” – MOJO “If shoegaze is the new sound in Alabama, I’m here for it. There’s a heaviness, but it’s balanced out by a little sonic touch that seems to be a sparkling bit of sunshine through the clouds” – Austin Town Hall “It features plenty of the guitar effects you’d expect, but these are grafted onto tracks that are edifices of squally synths, motorik and baggy beats” – Electronic Sound “Holy Island is a rare debut. Thoughtful, melodic and full of intent without ever becoming heavy handed” – Static Sounds Club “Despite its lyrical roots lying thousands of miles away, the album pulses with the warmth and soul of their home surroundings. Fuzzy guitars meet folk-horror moods and melodic songwriting on a record that balances depth with playfulness” – Norman Records “It's quite magical, this!” – Huw Stephens, BBC Radio 6 Music With support from: WARM PARTS A synth driven Post Rock / Krautrock / Shoegaze band based in Todmorden, West Yorkshire. The instrumental 3 piece are Rachael Elwell on synths and Theremin, Bryn Hans on drums, and Dan Smith on guitar. https://warmpartsband.bandcamp.com/ ADRA Andy Abbott is an artist, musician and writer who lives in West Yorkshire, UK. For a long time Andy was synonymous with pummelling noise; playing guitar in celebrated Leeds bands such as the ferocious duo That Fucking Tank or the double-drumming psych outfit Nope. However, in recent years – under his solo moniker ADRA – he has been making minimalist abstract music, alongside more acoustic and ambient-leaning explorations. https://youtu.be/SVcpaw7kKRk - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/todmorden/dark-matter-presents-sister-ray-davies-warm-parts-adra/200029311473830 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, parties, art, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 61 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Todmorden - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Golden Lion Todmorden - **lat**: 53.7121474 - **long**: -2.0988074 - **full address**: Golden Lion Todmorden, Todmorden, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Dark Matter presents Sister Ray Davies + Warm Parts + ADRA - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/1dc15ad04d469ee2c8714dde3e6b0500b055b410e4a6d992c3ace18f5655c7c9-rimg-w1200-h1687-dc132c35-gmir?v=1775219701 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Dark Matter presents Sister Ray Davies + Warm Parts + ADRA being held? - **A:** Dark Matter presents Sister Ray Davies + Warm Parts + ADRA takes place on Sun, 19 Apr, 2026 at 07:30 pm to Sun, 19 Apr, 2026 at 07:30 pm at Golden Lion Todmorden, Todmorden, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Dark Matter presents Sister Ray Davies + Warm Parts + ADRA? - **A:** Dark Matter presents Sister Ray Davies + Warm Parts + ADRA is organized by Dark Matter Promotions. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
