Agenda of the evening

19:30 - 20:00- Doors Open

20:00 - 20:45- Granfalloon

Richard Lomax (AKA Granfalloon) is about to deliver the third and final instalment of a 10 year project known as 'Calendar'. This triple album has been a maddening yet rewarding journey that has documented the fever dream of a chaotic year in the form of fifty-two pieces of music. Lomax first embarked on writing songs for a proposed year-long journal in 2014… This sonic journal rested until 2022 when 12 songs were reawakened, rerecorded under studio conditions, and released as 'Calendar - Volume I'.  It was to be the first instalment of a triptych; it focussed on traditional songwriting, and not quite traditional storytelling, to chisel out small, beautiful moments. It showcases this non-traditional storytelling with subject matter like... the meta-narrative approach to the dangers to you and the relationships around you that writing can have, expressing love through mathematical formulae, and 8 year old girls catching bees in Tupperware boxes, all with a heavy dose of Richard Lomax’s absurdism. This was followed by 2023's 'Calendar - Chapter II', a collaboration with fellow songwriter Lobelia. 'Chapter II' took the ideas, concepts and rough sketches of 2014 and rewrote them entirely, making new songs and fresh pieces of music with Lobelia. The album was recorded live with Lomax and Lobelia singing and playing together in the same room. Now, a decade after its initial conception, 'Calendar - Phase III', completes the journey, taking those fifty-two ramblings, ideas, half-baked thoughts and overcooked dreams and turning them into a trio of albums.

I've been to several of these events in the past year, and my favorite was the first one. The dancing and the atmosphere made it feel like we all knew each other, creating a fun experience. It feels like friends coming together for jam sessions at the end, which is really sweet. Another aspect I appreciate is having professional musicians involved, keeping the quality high. Overall, I really, really enjoyed the experience. I can't wait to go again!

My flatmate is a singer and she performs at loving room regularly, so I came here to support her. I liked my flatmate’s performance very much but also the third singer Abigael. She made me so emotional, I am really impressed. She was very open about her experiences and she shared quite some deep details. And then her music. I don’t speak Spanish, but it was just beautiful. Her last song was in English and it made me cry. The space is really nice too, I ordered a burger, its tasty and overall its cozy. I didn’t plan to stay for long, but I am already here longer than expected and I am not planning to leave.

I was looking for events online to go with my boyfriend and I saw this one and I thought it’s a nice one to go. I was not expecting the artists would be so good, and now I love it. My favorite artist was the third one, and I am definitely going to follow her on spotify. Personally, I love everything here honestly, also the atmosphere here. You told me you do it in different cafes, and its going to be a different experience every time, so far I love it.

I think it's funny, when I walked in I thought, oh, is this a meeting place? Is this a supermarket or an organic store? But I really like this. It's just something I've never experienced before.

I was thrilled with the idea of incorporating culture, which attracted more young people. I love connecting with people of all ages, seeing different faces, and enjoying the diverse music from around the world. It's a perfect match for us, gathering in the garden with people from Portugal, Syria, Turkey, Tunisia, and more. When I feel down after watching the news, coming here, hearing the music, and seeing young faces cheers me up.
