R*E*P*E*A*T Tearfully Presents

MONET – The Funeral Party

One last chance to experience Monet, one of the most original, inventive and downright wonderful bands to emerge from South Wales.

Their brilliant second and final album Cheer captures their extraordinary collision of punk, jazz, funk, rock, noise and beauty — but Monet have always been something else again live: electric, unpredictable, eye-catching and completely impossible to ignore.

For their final curtain call they're joined by three R*E*P*E*A*T favourites:

The Nanaz – joyous, energetic DIY punk-pop packed with personality, tunes and attitude.

Pseudo Cool – gloriously noisy, fiercely independent alternative rock, combining huge guitars with hooks, energy and ideas.

Jack City Rockers – ridiculous Swansea punkas bringing raw enthusiasm, righteous noise and old-school c**k ups to a new generation.

Come to praise Monet — and to bury them. One last beautiful racket.

Tonight! Heno!

PLANT began as a remote collaboration between songwriter Spencer Segelov and Producer/multi-instrumentalist Daniel Tudor Edwards over lockdown. Spencer would send skeletal outlines of songs which Dan would re-arrange and then play all instruments himself, resulting in something neither would have done alone.

Daniel would not get any instructions in advance and would have free reign to interpret as he pleased. Spencer’s songs which began in the vein of Jim O Rourke, Mercury Rev or Lump, were turned by Daniel into parts of Neil Young’s Ditch trilogy replete with downbeat, woozy synths and opaque, meandering detours.
