This is the page for Brainwash Promotions, Leeds promoters of music along the lines of rock/prog/metal/indie/folk/electronic. In other words, anything we like. Agents/tour bookers please email [email protected].
Recently, we have put on the likes of Oceansize, Chris Clark, Unsane, Adem, Youthmovies, Jeniferever, Twin Zero, Meet Me In St Louis, Jonquil, We Vs Death... we have also put on most of our favourite artists from Leeds, such as Humanfly, Red Stars Parade, This Et Al, These Monsters, Wintermute, iLiKETRAiNS, Paul Marshall, Vessels, Year Of The Man, Fran Rodgers, Napoleon IIIrd, randomNumber, The Plight... please listen to our 'top friends'. They're all good.
We have hosted 2 'Brainwash' festivals. These have involved a variety of bands across two venues, over three days. Primarily this festival is about enjoying good music, but we've also managed to raise around £3200 for Oxfam, Weston Park Cancer Appeal and Village Aid.
Speaking of money, we tend to give everything after costs to the bands (unless it's a fundraiser), after all it's them that deserve it. So basically we're non-profit, though occasionally we'll take a bit if the night's gone really well and all the bands have been paid fairly. Sometimes, we are even part of that not-so-exclusive club called the 'pro-loss promoters', who lose the odd penny or two on gigs. It gets soaked up by drying up on the booze for a week or two, but rarely happens these days.
We mainly use the following venues: the Brudenell Social Club (large gigs, the undisputed King of Live Music in Leeds), Upstairs @ the Library (medium gigs) & the Royal Park Cellars (small gigs).
We look after 2 bands, These Monsters and Wintermute (both in our top friends). If you'd like to book either band, get some promo material, or anything else, email us on [email protected]
We also have a Record Label: www.myspace.com/childrennomorerecords
Children No More has released material by These Monsters, We Vs Death and Wintermute.
We have a compilation due in June/July 2008.
We also run hire out bookings for Upstairs @ the Library; please don't use this page for that, instead use our email or the myspace in our 'top friends'.
Finally, we might be able to help you out with a PA/Engineer for a small gig at somewhere like the Packhorse. Contact the email or this myspace for that.
