Geva Alon
Gil Karpas
Sidefields
Monocrave Night Live is a line which will group a few of our favourite artists and bands. this is our second night in London after the first one selling out like doner kebab on a weekend night in Camden.
who's on? Geva Alon launching his UK tour, Gil Karpas and his funky-soulful guitar and Sidefields with their dark, dramatic atmospheric sound.
Geva Alon
one of Israel's most renowned singer-songwriter, Geva has released 'Get Closer', his 3rd solo album produced by Thom Monahan (Devendra Banhart, Silver Jews, Dinosaur Jr, Jayhawks).
known for his riveting live performances, Geva has landed several coveted festival shows and supported artists such as Paul Weller and Yo La Tengo. this will be a rare opportunity to see Geva up close in a solo acoustic show.
Gil Karpas
with original material, singer and songwriter Gil has gigged in support of some major national and international recording artists and has been heard numerous times on BBC radio. electro-acoustic soul with riff heavy edge. songs about love, hope and fear. likened to Voodoo funk strutting blues with an aching melodic voice.
"original numbers... brilliant musicianship, set off by Gil's soul tinged vocals"
(TCS - The Cambridge Student)
"one smooth brother!!"
(BBC Introducing)
"a voice that can really cut it"
(BBC Eastern Counties)
Sidefields
a lot like The Pretenders or The Cure, Sidefields is a band in disguise. behind the name and the sound lies the framework of a sole individual. with jangly tones resemble some favorable moments by Jonny Marr, and submitted through a steady beat that comprises some surprisingly catchy melodies, singer Itay Kashti enrolls his lovelorn, sarcastic yet affectionate views of London in short, precise phrases.
