About this event

Temple of Shibboleth & Solarference. A night of mythic prog/jazz/pop & folktronica.

Billie Bottle’s Temple of Shibboleth are delighted to announce that they are bringing their Mending Tour to The Acorn on Thurs 13th April.

The tour is promoting the release of their eponymous debut album, produced by George Shilling (Blur/Primal Scream/Bjork). The night will also feature folktronica duo, Solarference.

The Temple band are an all woman 5-piece based in Devon, who blend mythic prog/jazz with pop melodies. They have been described by All About Jazz as “vigorous and unequivocally hip”. The show combines art-rock with melodic grooves and is a really different experience that tells the story of The Week. How we cope with the world as it is today, practically, soulfully and with humour.

Billie sings and plays piano and keyboards and is joined by Viv Goodwin-Darke on flute and vocals, Roz Harding on alto sax, Anna Batson on bassoon and Emma Holbrook on drums.

With Billie, Viv also plays flute and sings for The Invisible Opera Company of Tibet, the tending of a vision sown with cult 70s band Gong. She was also a key member of psychedelic rock band, Magic Bus.

With Billie, Roz Harding has a long working relationship with avant-garde legends, Kate and Mike Westbrook.

Solarference are singers and sound artists Nic Janaway & Sarah Owen. They perform a genre-defying mix of live electronics and traditional folk. With voice and harmony at the heart of the music, Solarference meet audiences with an intense live energy.

Billie Bottle’s Temple of Shibboleth is released worldwide on double vinyl and digital download on 31st March 2023. It also features the voice and bass of the Canterbury Scene, Richard Sinclair (Caravan/Hatfield & The North).
