What Where? Festival

Introducing the acts… The Barnacles

A trip to brazil in 2017 began a process of reconnection for multi-instrumentalist and producer pete beardsworth, sparking the sound that would become The Barnacles. A group of fellow travellers and musians soon joined him on the journey, and together they set to work realising the compositions — improvising, experimenting, and making merry.

This cllip includes film from their album release in Nottingham’s multi-purpose creative centre The Carousel , and features live visuals by Alembic Stills. by @toad.sounds

We're delighted to be working with our friends @homerun.hifi to bring you 'Toad Run' on the 25th July at @thegreenhousesheffield.

We'll be bringing you some serious reggae, dancehall and dub selection (vinyl and digital) from both the Toad Sounds and Homerun crew from 3pm.

Later into the afternoon/evening the music policy will change to jungle and dubstep and we'll be joined by jungle queen @mixi.mp3.
