SUMMARY:Railcard + support (Matinee Show)
LOCATION:Pop Recs / Sonny's Coffee & Kitchen
DESCRIPTION:Railcard Railcard formed in early 2025 when Rachel Love\, Ian B
 utton and Peter Momtchiloff realised they were all born within weeks of e
 ach other and joked that this was an excellent reason to form a new band t
 ogether: shared history\, the same pop references\, parallel lives… The 
 idea might have remained just that - but Rachel and Ian began writing song
 s together\, Peter added his own into the list\, and by the time the band 
 made their live debut in December 2025 they had recruited their fourth mem
 ber Allison Thomson and recorded two albums’ worth of material. Skep Wax
  Records in the UK and Slumberland in the US gave them a home straight awa
 y. Rachel Love (vocals\, guitar\, cello) started playing\, writing and sin
 ging as a teenager in post punk/ pop band Dolly Mixture - who are cited as
  one of the major influences on modern indie pop\, riot grrl etc - and in 
 more recent years began a solo career with two acclaimed albums\, and coll
 aborations with Martin Newell\, Exploding Flowers and more. Ian Button (vo
 cals\, drums) had a 20 year career as a guitarist\, first with Thrashing D
 oves\, then Death In Vegas\, before switching to drumming\, production\, a
 nd writing for his own long-running project Papernut Cambridge. Ian is the
  drummer in the current lineup of Heavenly. Peter Momtchiloff (bass) was 
 a founder member of Talulah Gosh and Heavenly\, and since 1999 has been a 
 member of the Would-be-goods\, as well as more recently releasing material
  of his own as Tufthunter. Allison Thomson (trumpet\, keys) formed her fir
 st teenage band The Sherbet Fountains in 1980s Kilmarnock. In her music ca
 reer since she has played for the Trashcan Sinatras\, Heist\, and The Orch
 ids\, run a music school and studio in France\, and recently guested on tr
 umpet with The Love Band. Railcard’s individual musical DNA is easy to t
 race in the music - the Rachel and Ian’s songs mix up ingredients from t
 heir earlier projects\, and Peter’s bear his hallmarks too. Their sound 
 blends together shared lead vocals from Rachel and Ian\, jangling guitars
 \, sweet strings\, organ and cool/oblique trumpet lines from Allison\, plu
 s a drive and punch from Peter and Ian’s rhythm section that steers into
  Motown\, bubblegum pop/garage and more. Their songs celebrate getting old
 er\, but playfully dismiss nostalgia. There’s fun\, friendship\, kitchen
  sink adventure\, smart love songs\, and of course\, songs about train tra
 vel.\n\nBoletos: https://www.fatsoma.com/e/zzt4vhf7/railcard-support-matin
