Reuben’s Daughters & Harmer Jays at The Old Road Tavern
2024-04-05 20:00 | The Old Road Tavern, SN15 1JA
Friday 5th April, Vamos Promotions bring Reuben’s Daughters to Chippenham! 8pm start, pay what you want entry.
Reuben’s Daughters
An artist of a region where alternative-pop is like a second religion Reuben Myles Tyghe, aka Reuben’s Daughters has been evolving for almost two decades at the heart of the local independent scene in the South West of England. In 2022, Reuben wrote a new chapter in his musical history, with a debut album, under the name Reuben’s Daughters. A sunnier, more catchy and even pleasantly heady chapter. “Mami Wata”, like the African goddess of the same name, immediately seduces by her brilliance. The album is an adventure with
psychedelic and hopping tones of which Reuben and a few conscripts have the secret.
His ‘daughters’ accompany on the stage, in the studio and with all creative elements. Behind this nickname, both intimate and affectionate, hide the pillars of a rock-solid pop architecture. Musicians, producers, photographers, directors, designers who are the precious artisans collaborating on an energetic record to which everyone contributes. A collective at the service of the song, a hive of creators whose harmonious buzz is heard from the
first notes and then slides throughout an album that can be alternately catchy or exploratory.
Mami Wata was released 1st April 2022 via French label Microcultures Records to world-wide acclaim, with lead singles playlisted on French national radio station FIP and BBC 6 Music airing courtesy of Steve Lamacq.
Reuben’s Daughters are currently finishing the follow up to Mami Wata, which will be released in Autumn 2024 and will be touring the UK throughout the year.
Harmer Jays
Bristol-based artist Harmer Jays is a rising force in the indie-pop scene with his evocative sound and soulful vocals. In his music, Harmer Jays masterfully blends rich instrumentation with powerful vocals that come to the forefront, delivering a truly unique listening experience. His lyrics explore a range of themes, from the breathtaking bioluminescent waves in California to the struggles of maintaining relationships in the digital age.

Our studio is a safe space where participants can freely express themselves through sound and the creation of music and is used as a practice space for young aspiring bands and older musicians alike.

This eagerly anticipated event promises to be a vibrant celebration of creativity and talent. Taking place at the Rotary Hall on Station Hill, Chippenham. This event has been coordinated from start to finish by exceptionally talented students from Chippenham College.

They have poured their passion and creativity into curating an unforgettable afternoon that showcases the best of our young local music scene.
About The Bands
The event will include a lineup of young local musicians, who will take centre stage to share their mesmerising melodies and captivating stories with the audience. One of the bands that will be performing, ‘Quiet!’, came together through Kandu Art’s Social Hub Of Positivity (S.H.O.P) two years ago at age fifteen. Kandu offered them a place to rehearse and since then, they have performed at the Minety Festival, as well as Kandu’s annual community festival, Unlock Reset, which has been a massive success three years running.
Joining the lineup is another remarkable band, The Vivas, who since joining the Kandu Arts Music mentoring programme, will be playing on the Kandu Stage at Minety Festival and Unlock Reset – Also playing Aimee Jasmine and Kula Chakula and a few surprises. Undoubtedly bands and individuals on the brink of greatness.
