We are delighted to bring the amazing Psychodahlias to The Hope and Anchor in Islington on Friday May 17th. Even better they are supported by Rich Atkinson & the New Billionaires and Fuzzy Head.

The Psychodahlias emerged in early 2023.

Formed by Jim Penfold, singer/songwriter and former frontman for the Hollywood Killers the band consists of Jim Penfold (vocals/rhythm gtr), John East (bass) Simon Beard (lead gtr) Martin Atkins (keyboards) and Keef Harrison (drums). Niki and Lulu (The Psychodahliettes) (backing vocals).

The band are at present finishing recording their debut album to be released in April 2024.

Rich Atkinson is a Narrative Americana singer/songwriter from the Southwest of England. Story songs with a jazz influence and a lyrical twist are Rich’s speciality, in the style of Tom Waits, Randy Newman and the acoustic side of Springsteen.
Rich is joined by Rick Quintin on Tenor Saxophone, currently the only permanent member of ‘The Billionaires.’
