LIVE MUSIC + ALBUM LAUNCH

With some calling on the Lord, and some keeping down of the Devil, Tom Waits For No Man are on home turf at Whitley Bay’s newest hostelry, Oxygenic; to celebrate the release of their debut album, ‘Neckties and Boxing Gloves’

Rather than play the album in its entirety, they’ve decided to celebrate the extensive Waits religious canon with a Sunday service of songs warning you of Satan’s deeds and explanations of the whereabouts of Christ!

Come along to hear the songs of Tom Waits warning us of the Devil’s wiles and Jesus’s imminent arrival, all performed to a back drop of piano, spanners, bass and beer, on the Lord’s own day.

After ‘Tom’s Sunday Service’, another fine coastal dweller, DJ Bobbi Charleston – founder member of dance collective ‘Swing Tyne’ and front woman of ‘The House of Black Gardenia’ – will be playing from her unique selection of R & B, Blues, Soul and global grooves.

Doors 2:30PM, music 3:00PM

Built as part of the wider OXYGENIC ecosystem, the studios bring together creative sessions, sound-led experiences, workshops and more reflective forms of practice within an independent and evolving environment above the venue itself.

The space is light-filled, organic and creatively alive. Designed to feel calm, open and welcoming, the studios invite people to make, explore, and reconnect with creativity in a more natural way again.

As the studios continue to evolve, they are beginning to form a new creative layer within the building and a growing part of the wider cultural community developing around OXYGENIC.

Created by one of the OXYGENIC co-founders, the studios are shaped by a background in art, psychotherapy, creative and somatic practice. You can find out more about her work here, and sign up to our newsletter below to be the first to hear about upcoming workshops, events and studio openings.
