Coming up this Friday 6th, The Lodge Arts Collective step solidly into the Musical New Year hosting - MONIKER :
'Fresh from a triumphant comeback at the Hidden Gem Festival, Moniker brings a formidable new line-up and a signature sound defined by soaring melodies, three-part harmonies, andgrowling guitars.
Originally emerging from the rich Ayrshire and Glasgow music scenes of the late 1990s, Moniker returned to the stage in September at the Hidden Gem Festival in Dumfries. The highly-
anticipated comeback gig introduced a formidable new lineup and a sonic evolution that bridges the gap between the grit of 90s alternative rock and the cinematic atmosphere of post-
rock.
Moniker has been given a potent new lease of life by Dumfries-based songwriter Cameron Scade. The band creates a wall of sound that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking - an intense, melodic, and atmospheric experience that demands to be heard live.
This is a band with pedigree, bringing together a wealth of talent from respected acts including Firth, Spacehopper, Barstow Bats, The Lucky Doves and The Mind Sweepers'.
Always free entry, gonna be a great night!
