SUMMARY:Music: Richard Shindell
DESCRIPTION:Richard Shindell lives as both an immigrant and emigrant\, crossing thresholds\, that informs his illumination of the human experience through narrative song. Shindell has inhabited a Zen Buddhist monastery\, busked in the streets of Paris\, opened for Joan Baez (who covered several of his songs)\, and collaborated with Grammy-winner Larry Campbell (Bob Dylan\, Levon Helm\, Elvis Costello). \n  \nOriginally from New York\, now living in Buenos Aires\, Argentina\, Shindell is a writer whose songs paint pictures\, tell stories\, juxtapose ideas and images\, inhabit characters\, vividly evoking entire worlds along the way and expanding our sense of just what it is a song may be. Meticulously recorded over three years in New York and Buenos Aires\, his most recent release\, Careless\, offered an ambitious\, luxurious\, full-length statement. Shindell immersed himself in the studio\, allowing the time and latitude to explore\, experiment\, take risks—to play—as each of these eleven songs was given form and substance. While his signature acoustic guitar style is used to good effect\, Careless also found Shindell plugging in more. “The wider sonic and dynamic range of the electric has been a real inspiration. Rejuvenating.” \n  \nDuring the pandemic\, Shindell stayed in Argentina\, out on the wide open Pampa\, reading\, writing\, taking walks\, doing a little experimental recording\, and tending the garden. He now returns to the road for a limited number of performances. \n  \nInnovative\, original and occasionally spiritual\, Shindell’s songs weave tales that interchangeably champion the downtrodden\, exalt the disaffected or wax empathetic to those lost to society’s fringes. From lighthearted ballads and adulterous love songs\, to dirges and diatribes that skillfully skewer politics\, prejudice\, war and religion\, to the comic point-of-view of a cow stuck in a barbed wire fence\, he has a unique ability to morph into the soul of the many and varied personalities he casts as narrators in certain songs—veritable novellas framed in haunting acoustic melodies. \n  \n“Occasionally an artist has a night that makes even skeptics think\, “O.K.\, maybe he is the best.” Richard Shindell achieved this.” — Ann Powers\, NY Times

SUMMARY:Music: Furlined
DESCRIPTION:Following their sold-out Hen & Chicken show in February 2026\, we are excited to welcome Furlined back. \nInfectious hooks\, rich vocals and lush\, swooning cello are the defining features of Furlined\, a Bristol-based band formed in 2012 by singer-songwriter Neil Crossley and cellist Tegan Everett. \nThe band’s sound spans alt country and wry English chamber pop – “Morrissey meets Americana” as one review put it –  and they have been likened to Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds\, Richard Hawley and Orange Juice. \nFurlined have attracted acclaim in publications such as Mojo\, Clash Magazine\, RnR and Billboard. “Songwriter Neil Crossley has one of those winning\, strong yet gentle Jackie Leven / Richard Hawley baritones that do male vulnerability beautifully\,” concluded Mojo in a 4/5 review of the band’s second album Win A Dream Wedding. “Furlined’s other striking sound is Tegan Everett’s cello\, which intros most of Crossley’s dark-honey melodies… A band with distinct aural charms.” \n“Morrissey meets Americana – superb songs with an irresistible English wit.” Total Guitar 9/10

SUMMARY:Music: Angel Snow with guitarist Joe Wilkins
DESCRIPTION:We welcome Angel back to the intimate surroundings of the Hen & Chicken Studio\, with her hypnotic delivery and spellbinding style\, for a trio performance\, including guitarist Joe Wilkins and on drums\, Matt Stockham-Brown. \nAngel Snow has just completed a successful 14-date UK tour promoting her most recent release – a Tom Waits tribute album titled Yesterday Is Here. Snow’s catalogue spans four full-length records over the course of 15 years and eludes quick and easy categorisation. \nResisting all attempts to pigeonhole her style as ‘Americana’\, Snow leaned heavily on her early teenaged electronic influences for her sophomore effort\, choosing to work with UK-based producer Lee Groves (Trent Reznor). The result was Magnetic – a collection of lush\, ambient\, electronic-driven songs that landed her a record deal with indie powerhouse Nettwerk Records. Magnetic would go on to receive critical praise worldwide and deliver the viral underground hit ‘Secret.’ \nSnow remained with Nettwerk for two follow-up EPs Arrows and Arrows (Stripped)\, produced by Ben Cramer\, aka Old Sea Brigade. Once again\, Arrows delivered an under-the-radar indie viral hit after the K-pop phenom boy band BTS singer “V” included the song “Hotel Rosario” on his personal Spotify Favourites playlist\, which notably only contained five songs. \nWith the music industry grinding to a halt in 2020\, Snow continued focusing on writing\, turning to Los Angeles producer Jonathan Stein (aka Charles Jacques) for her next full-length album Low. With Stein at the helm\, Snow delivered a Covid-inspired collection of songs heavily weighted by the themes of loss\, claustrophobia\, and re-imagined trauma. \nMost notable is Snow’s starkly beautiful cover of Peter Gabriel’s ominous environmentalist warnings in “Here Comes the Flood.” Snow chose the song as a metaphor for the emotional surge arising when faced with intense loss. The entire record is punctuated by Stein’s virtuosic skills as a multi-instrumentalist. \n
