An artist of a region where alternative-pop is like a second religion Reuben Myles Tyghe, aka Reuben's Daughters has been evolving for almost two decades at the heart of the local independent scene in the South West of England. In 2022, Reuben wrote a new chapter in his musical history, with a debut album, under the name Reuben's Daughters. A sunnier, more catchy and even pleasantly heady chapter. “Mami Wata”, like the African goddess of the same name, immediately seduces by her brilliance. The album is an adventure with psychedelic and hopping tones of which Reuben and a few conscripts have the secret.
His 'daughters' accompany on the stage, in the studio and with all creative elements. Behind this nickname, both intimate and affectionate, hide the pillars of a rock-solid pop architecture. Musicians, producers, photographers, directors, designers who are the precious artisans collaborating on an energetic record to which everyone contributes. A collective at the service of the song, a hive of creators whose harmonious buzz is heard from the first notes and then slides throughout an album that can be alternately catchy or exploratory.
Mami Wata was released 1st April 2022 via French label Microcultures Records to world-wide acclaim, with lead singles playlisted on French national radio station FIP and BBC 6 Music airing courtesy of Steve Lamacq.
Reuben’s Daughters are currently finishing the follow up to Mami Wata, which will be released in Autumn 2024 and will be touring the UK throughout the year.
Between April and October, camping is available separately via Maker Camp website. Our Tavern within the venue is open until late, dishing out all the finest local tipples to keep you hydrated, plus Garrison Gallery are often serving up a storm of cocktails within their magical art-adorned walls next door.

See you up the hill!
