Claremont, the alias of Stockport-based musician and producer James Green performs in Bath for the first time on 13th June. Claremont has been a long-time creative outlet for James' electronic writing whilst studying and performing in a myriad of different outfits, including indie-rockers Spring King and Meadow Meadow. Now joined by bandmates Kieran Joyce (guitar) and James Holt (keys), James is able to get behind the drums and breathe new life into tracks that span the last decade and a half.
Influenced by the likes of Machinedrum, Four Tet and Floating Points, Claremont is a mixture of ethereal, atmospheric electronica and heavier, club genres such as jungle and garage. His recent releases have garnered support from BBC Radio 1 (Jaguar), BBC Introducing and more.
DJ on the night will Simon WHYD?
Support comes from Sylvie Grey. Grounded in lo-fi, folk-rock soundscapes, Sylvie Grey's debut double-track single Odes & Shadows was released on 12 May 2024. Written, arranged and recorded alone on a Tascam Porta 2 tape machine in quiet moments on her bedroom floor in Bristol, it introduced her intimate, DIY approach to sound creation and storytelling.
2026 opens a new chapter in Grey's career with the release of her debut EP, produced by Ali Chant [PJ Harvey, Aldous Harding, Katy J Pearson] and funded by Help Musicians' Next Level Award. Leaning into a richer, darker, and more electronic-infused sound, these upcoming tracks hint at the evolving landscapes waiting in Sylvie Grey's future work.
