COMMUNION PRESENTS… JOSEPH + BENEDICT BENJAMIN @ The Slaughtered Lamb! Joseph is a bewitching band of three sisters from the beautiful Pacific Northwest. Expect honest words and genetically perfected harmonies. Daytrotter attests, “The sounds that they are able to summon from their bodies are heaven sent, roundly giving you chills and making you feel as if you’ve just been kissed.” The band’s ATO Records debut album will be released Spring 2016, and is produced by Mike Mogis (Conor Oberst, Jenny Lewis, First Aid Kit.) FREE (ticket needs booking)

The Indie Music Meet-Up group are heading along as well…
