JCT27 - OPENS ITS DOORS FOR THE FIRST TIME - 7th, 8th and 9th APRIL

Barnstaple's new and only dedicated grassroots music venue opens this weekend with world class DJ - Stanton Warriors, local favourites The Rasscals and first edition of regular open mic night hosted by On Track Audio .

Friday 7th April - Stanton Warriors: Support from Tommy Deaves - EZPZ
The Stanton Warriors’ irresistible and inimitable sound has consistently remained the soundtrack to some of the world’s biggest and best parties over the past thirteen years; from East London warehouses, Miami boat parties and illegal Detroit raves, to the stages of Coachella, Glastonbury, Burning Man and Ultra, selling out global tours and topping DJ lists along the way. In the studio, Bristol’s Mark Yardley and Dominic Butler have honed a trademark, uncategorisable sound that is at once all their own, but also utterly indefinable, leading to high-profile releases on XL Records, Fabric, Cheap Thrills, Central Station and Universal, alongside official remixes for everyone from Daft Punk and Fatboy Slim, to MIA and Gorillaz. This phenomenal output and remarkable longevity has ensured the Stanton Warriors legendary status amongst not only their fans, but also their peers, as they remain fresh, original and relevant; obstinately dancing to beat of their own drum and helping to pave the way for new talent.

“Stanton Warriors always deliver, this latest track just takes it to a whole other level.” - ZANE LOWE, BBC RADIO 1

“Stanton Warriors' Bring Me Down is pretty much the perfect garage beat. Everything about that song – the vocal line, the chords, the melody – is totally original.” - DISCLOSURE

“Oh my Gosh, SO good! This is the kind of music that makes you literally want to go mental on the nearest dancefloor. As tried and tested on my living room carpet!” - ANNIE MAC, BBC RADIO 1
