Pictureskew + Elena Sirett
5th April
PICTURESKEW
Putting the "post-" in "folk punk", Pictureskew is what would have happened if Pigeon Pit went goth instead of country. Once described by a touring band as "like a lil political rally" – immediately before being mistaken for teenagers – they're back from an extended break with songs that are somehow even more direct and even more cryptic. Still challenging the legitimacy of the state monopoly on violins.
ELENA SIRETT(they/them):
Elena Sirett is a folk-punk musician from North London specialising in theatrically honest solo acoustic songs. Their work wittily expresses the extreme emotions they experience as someone with borderline personality disorder. Elena also produces events for their project Attention Seekers, where they platform mentally ill, neurodiverse and disabled creatives. On top of that, they are a stage manager and a part of the creative team for Creature immersive.
