The Higher Planes, Jouis, John Johanna & Sylvia Stellar

Basement Tapes are back at Paper Dress Vintage for the latest instalment of our monthly residency with grooves to make you move!

This month features live performances from harmony-laden blues-folk 6-piece The Higher Planes, prog/jazz groovers Jouis, devotional bluesman John Johanna and ukelele wonderwoman Sylvia Stellar.

As usual Basement Tapes DJs (Sam Ra & Howlin’ Walsh) and The Flying Mojito Bros will be spinning some fine FUNK, SOUL, AFROBEAT, DISCO, RARE GROOVE and much more until 3am.

Live sets from:
The Higher Planes
We are so delighted to have these guys back after a massive set for us last year at Paper Dress. Raw, soulful and downright dirty, The Higher Planes will blow your mind with their harmony drenched psychedelic blues. Prepare to have your mind blown > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjwlW7utm-U

JOUIS
Basement Tapes favourite band. Crepuscular grooves sit at the heart of the most wonderful psych, jazz, prog and folk jams. Their 2014 album Dojo is a masterpiece. Listen here: https://jouis.bandcamp.com/album/dojo

John Johanna
Devotional gospel blues set to the backdrop of 4 track experiments and beutifully crafted acoustic balladeering. ‘Deep River’ is one of the finest tracks we have heard in years. Listen here: https://soundcloud.com/john-johanna/deep-river

Sylvia Stellar
Ukelele star Sylvia Stellar will be opening up the evening for us. Such a beautiful voice and a perfect way to start the evening with some reworked classics. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQsfYEIl7obqbJS0LXe2LjA
