Sairie + Roger Kunkel & Stoo Odom + Simon Breed

- Clerkenville East-West presents an evening of entrancing and extraordinary music.

We have the London launch of the debut album by Brighton-based ethereal folk trio Sairie, from the US - Roger Kunkel + Stoo Odom - formerly of mighty acid/ Paisley/ desert rockers Thin White Rope, and gripping London singer-songwriter Simon Breed.After releasing a series of captivating singles and EPs since 2020, SAIRIE launch their first full-length album, ‘Beneath the Spreading Tree’.

It continues the trio's exploration of early 70’s folk influences, blending otherworldly atmospherics with stripped-back arrangements. In a four star review, The Guardian heralded its "glistening psych-folk...Singer Emma Morton brings an indie-girl chorister’s brightness to this captivating debut album, on songs with hints of darkness that sound ages-old".

While KLOF Magazine wrote: "Sairie’s long-awaited debut sounds like a lo-fi Pentangle with an added layer of hauntological strangeness...This ageless-sounding debut is stark in its beauty and richly rewarding."https://sairie.bandcamp.com/"80% improvised guitar and bass duo" ROGER KUNKEL & STOO ODOM were members of much lauded Californian rock band Thin White Rope, touring the world, appearing on MTV, and having breakfast and puking with Nirvana.
