Malchamech are a “power trio for the 21st century” from Liverpool and Manchester. They’re releasing their new record from the building they rehearse in, Metal – located inside the buildings at Platform 1 of Edge Hill train station. In support will be Pete Smyth performing a solo set. The event is free but donations are welcome. Consider this a practice space concert unlike many others!

Forming part of the ‘Music Improvisers’ group that uses Metal’s building at Platform 1 as a practice space, Malchamech consists of Richard Harding on chapman stick, Phil Hargreaves on flutes and saxophones, and Richard Harrison on drums and percussion. Their sound is a “swirling maelstrom” of jazz-metal, appropriate for our church-like Engine Room performance venue. If you enjoy music that’s unpredictable, distorted, and verging on a churning curdle of styles and approaches, then this is for you.

You may recognise Pete Smyth from his contributions to Liverpool musical luminaries such as Kling Klang, Mugstar, and Clinic. In a solo capacity Pete recently opened up for stalwart of the live touring circuit, Richard Dawson.

Pay a visit to Metal Liverpool – Platform 1 at Edge Hill station – from 7:30pm on Friday 28th July to catch a glimpse of the experimental music scene in a far from traditional setting.
