Join us on the first of March when with the Hebridean label Lost Map we return to Kent with some welcoming wonder in the incredible space and relaxed setting of Canterbury’s Gulbenkian Art Centre as part of new grassroots festival You Are Here. Once you are settled in your swish seat you can enjoy the high energy beats and vocal interplay of Blind Yeo. Next, we focus in on the looped cello and dark folk storytelling of Dominie Hooper. Then finally we set our dials to fun as Owen & The Eyeballs bring their chaotic art pop and some tremendous tales and silly stories to draw the afternoon to a close.
Blind Yeo are an eclectic Cornish cosmic folk collective led by Will Greenham and Anoushka Helm who draw on motorik propulsion, folk ritual, rave energy and communal improvisation. Their recordings (available via Lost Map) capture a band in joyful motion: a shifting collective whose off-grid, woodland-recorded EP Anam Cara and the compilation Echoes / Anam Cara document the first thrilling chapter of a group driven by curiosity, collaboration and the strange elasticity of time.
Dominie Hooper is a London-based singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist crafting spellbinding music rooted in folklore, ritual, and emotional transformation. Her songs shimmer with raw intensity and lyrical depth, blending growling cello, textured guitar, and collective vocals into something dark, unsettling, and beautiful. Her debut album, In This Body Lives was released in late 2025 on Lost Map promises to deepen the spell.
Owen & The Eyeballs are a London-based wrong-pop band formed by illustrators and long-time pals Owen Gildersleeve, Andrew Rae, Jim Stoten and Nick White. Their new album Owen & The Eyeballs Too is a gleeful mix of silly and slightly-less-silly songs about moon-heads, naps, procrastination, and loving someone’s face. It features guest vocals from Mighty Boosh’s Dave Brown and sax from Laur Fitton, recorded at Total Refreshment Centre and mixed by Kristian Craig Robinson.
