More Details
Penny Ante
Everybody loves jangly but muscular indie pop – well, everybody we care about, stuff the rest – and this is what Penny Ante will supply. And you know their supply will be good, because they feature members from top GTI alumni The Half Rabbits and Mr G & Rich, plus Darren from excellent local bands Cat Matador and The Cooling Pearls. Their charming first demos ae equal parts Wedding Present, Sparklehorse, and Placebo.
My Liberal Pony
Empires, Empires were an excellent band from Reading whom you may recall played GTI in 2025. Now Simon from that band has started a solo project, My Liberal Pony, which we'd described as poetic ranting over electronica, with occasional wobbles into surprisingly funky abstract hip-hop. He, on the other hand, describes the act as "at times serious, at times funny, but always the invitation into an MRI scanner that you didn't know you needed".
Only The Brave
Only the Brave is a band from south Oxfordshire that play self-penned americana songs that dwell in your soul as old friends. Expect haunting riffs and lyrics that reveal stories of longing and dog-legged lives, and bitter-sweet vignettes, with a laid-back roots-rock vibe, dusted with a little country. Songwriting and wonderfully fluent guitar come from Stephen Eyre who played in one of the very earliest Gappy gig with Oakland Majesty Revival.
DON'T BE AN ARSE
Our gigs are often highly eclectic, so there might be a wide variety of punters in our little venue. We want everyone to have a good time, so relax, express yourself and have a good gig, but be thoughtful of other people and don't ruin their night with your fun. Basically, just be considerate and nice, and everyone will be happy.
Naturally, anyone who is actively aggressive, or who abuses anyone else on the grounds of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, Monster Munch flavour preference, or whatever the hell else might make a bigot irrationally angry, is out the door.
WE'LL DO OUR BEST TOO
In return, we'll make every effort to create a warm and pleasant environment, and we'll try our hardest to keep to the timetable (music starts at approximately 20.00, and will go on till about 22.15). Also, we've kept the door price as low as we can, but rest assured that GTI is a non-profit event, and all the money after expenses goes to the performers.
