Event M41: ABSUMA + support

Blistering six piece folk pop outfit from Littlehampton, with support from the inimitable ‘songbird by the sea’ Olivia Stevens. ABSUMA delight with their heady brew managing to fuse together their love for early folk music and 60’s surf and psych music. ABSUMA tread a tightrope of exciting musical possibilities.

Featuring maverick movers and shakers from LA ABSUMA are cooking up a musical storm! Fusing together lead singer Simons’ love for early folk music and 60’s surf and psych music they tread a tightrope of exciting possibilities, spinning musical plates with huge aplomb with the whole definitely being greater than the parts. With poetic imagery and ribald and surreal stories from the road, all of this makes ABSUMA a compelling live act. With a debut album in the pipeline the momentum is definitely building! Come and check them out if you haven’t already!

Stalwart of the festival, Olivia will be binging her trademark sassy soul, cathartic blues confessionals and poetic oddities to the musical table. She’ll be joined by long-term collaborator and musical yin to her yang; the magic of Stefan Rajic on guitar.
