SUMMARY:TNL: Lonan
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday Night Live: LONAN \nDoors 7pm Music 7.15pm \nYorkshire-based folk trio LONAN met through the lively Leeds music scene. The trio’s strong friendship and musical foundations were solidified when\, after hearing the likelihood of an upcoming lockdown in late March 2020\, they quickly moved in together and decided to use the time to do some recording in Timmis’ basement studio. \nThis resulted in their first single\, ‘Following Orders’\, released in April 2021 (which\, in keeping with the story of the song\, raised money for the Leeds homeless charity St George’s Crypt) and their debut album Forever Has Flown\, released in August 2021. \nLonan often draw upon contemporary issues as well as traditional song\, exploring the eclectic musical palettes of Evan Davies (mandolin\, fiddle\, guitar\, vocals)\, Katy Ryder (flute\, whistles\, guitar\, vocals) and Robin Timmis (guitar\, fiddle\, vocals). \nLonan have performed at festivals including Llangollen International Eisteddfod\, Hebden Bridge Folk Festival and Northern Green Gathering\, and their music has been played on shows such as Mike Norris’ Classic Folk and Ian Anderson’s Podwireless\, as well as a living room concert live on Chapel FM. In the summer of 2024 they began working on their next highly-anticipated release at Greenmount Studios\, and this EP is planned to be released in the autumn. \n“Wonderful vocal harmonies\, delicate arrangements and slick musicianship. With bags of personality and an infectious passion for great folk music\, Lonan are a trio not to be missed!” – Marc\, MEWL Music \n“Fantastic\, absolutely beautiful!” – Sian\, Chapel FM Radio \nAdvance tickets £7/£6 concessions available from HEART reception and online \nOTD on the night from 5pm £10/£9 concessions

SUMMARY:FNL: Elfyn
DESCRIPTION:FNL: Elfyn  \nElfyn is the pseudonym of Leipzig-based singer and musician Theresa Elflein. Elfyn’s music moves between electro- and avant-pop\, sometimes euphoric\, sometimes aggressive\, sometimes even meditative. Vocal tracks are layered and condensed\, ethereal violins merge with synths and beats. Her musical style is inspired by Mitski\, Massive Attack\, Bjork\, and late 90s Madonna. \nThe musician has lived in England for many years and so she absorbed British pop directly at the source\, which you can hear in her music. Her most recent project “anam cara” was released back in January\, which includes a wonderful cover version of the song “Isn’t it a pity” by George Harrison. She is currently undertaking a solo tour of the UK\, which includes a stop in Headingley!

SUMMARY:Talking Heads - Sharon Fargher
DESCRIPTION:Current Trends in Addiction and Recovery\, 24th October \nSharon Fargher: Area Manager of St Anne’s Community Services\, Leeds \nHeld in the Claremont Room at HEART\, Bennett Road\, Headingley. \nEach session starts at 19.30 and finishes at 21.00 – though discussion can continue in the café. \nDonation: £3 but no one turned away for lack of funds \nContact: TalkingHeadsHEART@gmail.com \n  \nThe use and abuse of drugs and alcohol is seldom out of the public eye whether in the media or tv dramas. On the one hand portrayed as cool and exciting\, an essential accompaniment to enjoying music and dance\, at home or abroad. On the other hand\, as an exploitation of the young through county lines\, an adjunct to shoplifting and other crimes\, and disrupting families and relationships including domestic violence.  \nWhen it comes to dealing with the problems associated with drugs and alcohol\, we tend to reach for solutions rooted in abstinence or harm reduction or tacit acceptance and tolerance.  \nThis talk will look at the context and trends of drug and alcohol use locally and nationally and the national and local responses\, including the social\, political and moral frameworks that motivate such responses.  \n  \nTalking Heads at HEART is a monthly event where speakers share their expertise on a wide range of subjects:  economics\, culture\, health / social and international issues. \nWe have had some fascinating presentations. The speakers are often local experts from a particular field and / or drawn from local universities / research departments. There is always time for debate and questions afterwards. \nTalking Heads is a joint initiative between HDT and HEART. We welcome ideas for topics and potential speakers – as well as help in organising the sessions … please get in touch! \nAll are welcome.

Her music is a beguiling mixture of her life experience\, woven into a rich tapestry of sound. Armed with her ukulele\, she crafts songs that turn melancholy into a musical journey that demands to be heard. \nThe much anticipated EP Ballads for this Age will be released in November. The first track Ballad 1 (sorry)\, has received particular acclaim. \n  \nAdvance tickets £7/£6 concessions available from HEART reception and online  \n\n\n\nOTD on the night from 5pm £10/£9 concessions

Anton Corbijn/1hr 41mins/Certificate 15/B&W/2022 \nWatch Squaring the Circle trailer \n“Celebrated photographer\, creative director and filmmaker Anton Corbijn’s first feature documentary SQUARING THE CIRCLE (the story of hipgnosis) tells the story of Storm Thorgerson and Aubrey “Po” Powell\, the creative geniuses behind the iconic album art design studio\, Hipgnosis\, responsible for some of the most recognisable album covers of all time.  \nThey formed Hipgnosis in Cambridge during the ferment of the sixties and became rock royalty during the boom time of the seventies. During this period\, record companies didn’t dictate to acts like Peter Gabriel\, Pink Floyd\, Led Zeppelin and Paul McCartney what their LP covers should look like – Storm and Po did. They made money; they lost money. They did great things; they did silly things. They fell out bitterly; they made up. They never played a note\, but they changed music. \n The film features brand new interviews with Roger Waters\, David Gilmour and Nick Mason of Pink Floyd\, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin\, Paul McCartney\, Peter Gabriel\, Graham Gouldman of 10cc\, Noel Gallagher\, and many more.” Trish D Chetty (writer of this documentary) \nWatch Mark Kermode’s review \nTickets £6.50/£5.50 concessions  \n\n\n \nWe have regular monthly films at Heart on the 2nd Wednesday of the month plus specials including FilmFeast
