A night of new & eclectic music at Exeter Library, co-produced with Obvious Events. Featuring an explosive set from voice-and-percussion ensemble Tyrani, plus “tender and enchanting” Jonah Corren & another support act TBA

Tyrani Collective is a Bristol-based ensemble of six vocalist-instrumentalists blending multi-part harmonies with powerful percussion, synths, and drums. Inspired by Henry Purcell, Cocanha, and San Salvador, they use original lyrics as rhythmic motifs, distorting words and voices into a hypnotic, polyphonic sound. Whether at festivals or intimate acoustic shows, their dynamic energy captivates. Featuring members of Spindle Ensemble and Solana, they’ve performed at Shambala Festival, Fire in the Mountain, and The Jam Jar Bristol, supporting Bab L’ Bluz.

Jonah Corren is a songwriter-poet from West Dorset. His debut EP, Dreaming and Petty Crime, explores his rural upbringing, touching on nostalgia, urbanization, and teenage boredom. An alum of BBC New Creatives, his spoken word and music piece Borderlines was produced with Bristol artist Dizraeli. His poetry has been published by The Poetry Society and featured in anthologies from Nine Arches Press and Arachne Press.

His latest single, Langdon, shifts toward guitar-driven songwriting and introspective lyricism, earning comparisons to David Kitt and Stornoway.
