*Charles Hayward *is an English drummer and was a founding member of the
experimental rock group *This Heat*. He also played with Mal Deans amazing
Band, Radar Favourites, dolphin logic, and gigged and recorded with Phil
Manzanera in the group Quiet sun project as well as a short stint with
Gong. In 1976, Hayward and fellow Radar Favourites and Dolphin Logic
member, Charles Bullen began practising with bassist Gareth Williams under
the name This Heat. They began to experiment with tape loops, found sounds
and keyboards on several sessions (recorded from 1976 to 1978, but not
released until 1979). Finally, in 1979, This Heat released their
self-titled debut album. 1981′s Deceit marked the final new album from This
Heat, Williams leaving just after its release. While Bullen began working
as a studio engineer, Hayward did sessions for Lora Logic, the Raincoats
and Everything But the Girl before forming Camberwell Now with bassist
Trefor GORONWY and tape manipulator Stephen Rickard. The trio released
several albums through the Swiss Recommended label. When Camberwell Now
disbanded in 1987, Hayward embarked on a solo career which has continued to
the present day. He debuted with Survive the Gesture (1987), Skew-whiff
(1989) Switch on War (1991) and My Secret Alphabet (with Nick Doyne-ditmas)
in 1993. In 1998, he joined Massacre with Fred Frith and Bill Laswell.
Throughout the 90′s up to the present he has initiated a bewildering array
of events and performances , including the widely acclaimed series
Accidents + Emergencies at the Albany Theatre, Out of Body Orchestra (too
much sound, not enough space, not enough time), music made from the sound
of the new LABAN dance centre being built which was choreographed for the
official opening, music for a circus (part of the National Theatre’s ‘Art
of Regeneration’ initiative), the full-on installation/performance
Anti-Clockwise (with Ashleigh Marsh and David Aylward) for multiple
strobes, maze structure of diverse textures, 2 drummers, synthesizers and
your nervous system. Recent developments include the Continuity evenings as
part of Camberwell Arts.

*BARBEROS *are four beards, 3’293’381’278’839 hairs, four drumsticks, 23
cables, four boys who met in liverpool, originally from Sheffield, Milton
Keynes, Wales and Rome. After being involved with each other in various
ways and various projects for two years, they eventually came together
fuelled by a passion for loud noises, hitting things and of course,
spandex. Their music has been described as
math/terror/doom/jazz/electronica, with very danceable breakdowns cutting
through intermittently throughout the over all technical polly rhythmical,
syncopated drum-dominated noise filled performance they deliver with their
line up of two acoustic drum kits, synths and live visuals. All these
factors, along with the costumes they wear (head to toe white spandex
bodysuits), add to the band’s very impressive overall theatrical
performance, which fits perfectly both on the small, and (preferably!) the
large stage. February 2010 saw them embark on their third UK tour in a year
in which they have played shows in London, Brighton, Glasgow, Edinburgh,
Manchester, Stafford, Milton Keynes, Dundee, Leeds and their hometown,
Liverpool. In May 2010, the band completed a 14 date European tour with
Stignoise, and a futher 6 date UK tour in June. In their short career
they’ve shared the stage with: Tim Exile, Dälek, Charles Hayward, Chrome
Hoof, Action Beat, Take a worm for a walk week, The network, Capillary
Action, aPAtT, Stignoise.

*Ultraspießer*
“NK a well known place for avant-garde and experimental music in Berlin was
the location where Julian Percy aka Ratbag (electric guitar treatment),
Anton Maiof (voice, wii & max/MSP) and Julian Bonequi (manipulated drums &
voice) came together in November 2010 to play Ultra Speicer, a stunning
performance which promises a deep and intense sonic trip. Leading off with
hypnotic drumming, distorted guitar lines embedded in ambient sounds the
album moves to ecstatic drumming combined with female and male vocals,
accompanied by well placed sound collages which achieve to carry off the
listener to another state of consciousness.”
