With Nell & I

With Nell & I

All the members of With NellÌý& I originate from Dartmoor and have been playing together in different line-ups for over 10 years.

Three of them;ÌýNell, Jess and Harry, all attended primary school together!


Ìý

Now based in Bristol, they recorded their acoustic EP -Ìý‘Horse & Carriage’ - last year at the acclaimed Sawmills studios in Cornwall and are now planning an electric single release in the New Year.

This is a return visit to the show for Nell and the band - and they're keen to perform some festive songs live in the studio.

Sam Mayo And The Tuesday Syndicate

Sam Mayo And The Tuesday Syndicate

Hailing from Woolacombe, North Devon, the band explain how theyÌýcame byÌýtheir name:

Ìý

"A cheeky pint in 'Jacks' on one drizzly TuesdayÌýafternoon was a great idea that week, with no surf or anything else going on.

Ìý

"It quickly became a weekly thing to drag ourselves down to the pub and entertain the bar staff for a few hours, jammin' covers and eventually writing our own material - starting with a song called '6:05' for the landlady, Laura, who wasn't having a great day.

Ìý

"It started to sound alright, apparently, so we thought we might make a thing of it.

"Being around on the tuesday naturally became part of the title but 'The Tuesday Club" didn't seem to have quite the ring we were looking for.

"It took a few days before Ed (our drummer) was sat in the back of the car with the rest of us (Sam Mayo, Tim WaringÌýand Olly Bolland), onÌýthe wayÌýto a show, suddenly screaming the word we'd all been lusting for, and thus, 'The Tuesday Syndicate' was born!"

Six Days
