Exciting addition to the programme - a 50th anniversary screening of Barbara Kopple’s Harlan County, USA 🇺🇸 ✊

Winner of the 1976 Oscar for Best Documentary, Harlan County, USA tells the story of a Kentucky miners’ strike that mine owners attempted to violently suppress. Shocking and galvanising in equal measure, the film is a portrait of a lost world of working-class consciousness.

Tomorrow

The song has no ending presents:

Skydaddy

Skydaddy is the moniker of London-born Lebanese/Grenadian songwriter-producer/artist, Rachid Fakhre. He has released two mini-albums through his own label Bathtime Sounds as well as albums of his former project, Spang Sisters. This year he will be releasing his debut solo album and will be supporting Geese on their UK shows in the run-up. He (and his band) will be stopping off at The Cube for a very special show midway.

“A modern day chamber folk virtuoso redefining musical narratives” - Still Listening

Mia Wilson

Southern California singer-songwriter Mia Wilson (and band) will be gracing the cube with her debut UK performance before going on to play End of the Road Festival. Mia's self titled LP - Produced by Tim Ramsey (Vetiver, Little Wings, Kacey Johansing) - blends piano and guitar based compositions with lush orchestral arrangements to create a backdrop for her introspective lyrics and captivating mezzo-soprano vocals. The album recalls the golden glow of late 60’s & early 70’s LA records like Carole King’s Tapestry, Judee Sill’s Heart Food, and Jackson Browne’s Late For the Sky.

“Wilson moves across these nine tracks with poise and sophistication, like a well-travelled singer-songwriter who’s long honed their craft” - Shindig!



North Yorkshire born folk-songwriter Nile Robinson began performing live music after moving to Bristol in 2023. His work blends influences of American Primitive, Anti-Folk & Glock-Rock across an eclectic array of instrumentation.

Introducing Shuiqingqing He, who will be performing a rare solo set on guzheng at Cube on 11th September.

Hé, Shuǐqīngqīng (何水清清) is a gǔzhēng (traditional Chinese zither) performer and musicologist whose work explores transcultural musical practices.

She is committed to developing new repertoire and collaborative performance practices that bring together Chinese and Western musical traditions as a founding member of Shui Mo Ensemble.

Through close partnerships with composers, SHUIMO explores innovative approaches to intercultural music-making, creating new artistic possibilities beyond conventional aesthetic boundaries.

🐺 BOUCHRA 🐺

Bouchra is wrestling with two homes, a rift in her identity, and a tangle of friendships and romances, all while trying to find her way back to her mum, and herself.

From Meriem Bennani & Orian Barki (2 LIZARDS), this debut feature is deeply felt, surprisingly sexy, and formally adventurous.

"A boldly original work." Wendy Ide, The Observer
"A film that maps q***r experience." The Guardian

A week on Tuesday we are showing something very special - the debut feature by one of our all time top favourites, Abbas Kiarostami.

The Traveler has all the hallmarks of the master - an incredible child performance, a documentary-style observation of the streets of Iran, and a sense of spirituality that is hard to pin down but unmistakable.

Come along to start or continue your Kiarostami journey ❤️
