Visions of Albion

"Music that straddles the interface between folk and Americana, but with a definite English slant, possibly influenced by William Blake."
Americana UK

Fresh off the back of two sold-out shows at Liverpool Philharmonic’s Music Room performing the classic Carole King album ‘Tapestry’ in its entirety, Visions of Albion are currently immersed in the meticulous process of recording their long-awaited debut album - an endeavour infused with the soulful essence of Americana, Folk, and Roots music.
Formed in 2018 by vocalist Sam Shields and guitarist Daniel Ryan, Visions of Albion embody a commitment to musical authenticity. The release of their self-titled debut EP, in 2021, showcased their artistry and acted as a foreshadowing of the depth and creativity that defines their unique sound.
With several of their songs featured on BBC Introducing and a plethora of independent radio stations, both locally and internationally, Visions of Albion’s performances provide audiences with an immersive musical experience; where the band’s passion for storytelling through melody takes centre stage.

"a diverse and creative act... effective and versatile"

ME + Deboe 

“Music as impactful as this doesn’t come along often.. This music duo have to be seen to be believed”  
Liverpool etc

Blending rhythmic folk musings with delicately woven harmonies, established acoustic duo ME & Deboe transcend genre to deliver a range of emotive performances driven by poignant lyrics and powerful riffs.
Mercy Elise and Sarah Deboe elevate acoustic music across a variety of scenes and audiences on both a national and international stage, gaining endorsement with Danelectro USA guitars and G7th. The Duo have recently been acknowledged for their representation and contribution to the LGBTQ+ Community through music.

“There are no tricks here [with] the duo’s driving riffs and sumptuous vocal harmonies effortlessly intertwined to devastating effect.."
Tom Robinson, BBC 6 Music

Paul Iwan 

"You’re never too far away from a seductive melody or an inspirational rush...the quality of his work stands loud and proud"
At the Barrier 

Mixing elements of Electro with Alternative Rock and emotive songwriting, 
Paul Iwan (yoo-un) is one of the most intriguing talents in Liverpool’s fertile and eclectic scene. 
In 2019, his self-released and self-produced debut album 'Resister' hit the shelves to local critical acclaim, and was immediately pronounced ‘a classic’ by John Robb’s Louder than War.   Later the same year, Iwan entered and won the 24hr Songwriting Challenge at Liverpool’s Threshold Festival with new song Returning and also acquired Julian Cope’s legendary green Framus guitar, releasing a tribute to his hero with a cover of the Eighties classic ‘Reward’.
Other highlights include airplay on BBC Radio 6, a songwriting mentorship with The Kinks iconic frontman Ray Davies and numerous appearances at the International Pop Overthrow Festival in New York.
His latest album 'Present' was released in April 2022.

"a powerful and thought-provoking record and one on repeat"

Plazzy Bag 

Plazzybag has been many things, none of which have quite stuck. Most recently she is a Poet, artist and tattooer and will probably do this for a few years, until she realises she's not very good. She does, however, try her best at everything and is quite sound.

DJ Richie Vegas 

Richie Vegas cut his DJing teeth in his late teens - messing about with hip hop and breaks - before plundering his family’s record collections and forging a sound that includes soul, funk, jazz, afrobeat and reggae.
