Hello Leeds!!

We've had loads of inquiries recently at Old Chapel asking if we run informal jam sessions. These are for people to meet other musicians and get into jamming with other players, maybe even form a band or two!

At the moment we're just gauging interest and seeing who's interested. If you're keen to meet new people, and jam in an informal, low cost studio environment, then please fill in the form linked below. It takes 2 minutes and will help us get these sessions up and running as soon as possible!

Introducing Eeade! We recently came across Eeade on the Leeds scene, and we can’t wait for her upcoming EP. The four tracks she’s released already are gorgeously haunting, each in its own way. We especially loved seeing her flex her Basque roots in Ez Zaude. Firmly refusing to be categorised, Eeade is blazing her own trail here in Leeds, and we’re excited to see what she has in store for us next.

Introducing Draags as our next spotlight artist! We’ve loved having them bring their wild mix of funk punk to Old Chapel and it’s always great hearing them rehearse as they’re one of the sharpest bands going on the Leeds scene. We can’t get enough of their latest album, one track in particular ‘Monarchy’, being a favourite amongst our staff. In an often quite mundane world Draags always bring so much colour and good energy with them 💜 We can’t wait to see what they get up to next!

We were thrilled to have Ruby Dean playing our first ever Old Chapel Presents showcase night at The New Headingley Club last week. She has an absolutely stunning voice, with beautifully ethereal lyrics - you could have heard a pin drop during her set, such a magical performer! Ruby is playing with another of our bands from the night - Sleepy Jean, at The Domino on the 17th June for their album launch. Go check her out!
