Saoirse Dream x Estelle Allen

T4Tunes is a predominantly London-based booking and touring venture that provides safe, inclusive gigging for artists from the trans+ community across a myriad of alternative genres. We are powered by community-led, accessible music events and (unfortunately infrequent) tape releases.

It's a pleasure to be hosting Saoirse Dream's second London show after a spontaneous sold-out gig at the Cav last year, as well as Estelle Allen's first show in the UK. Both hyperpop mainstays as soloists, the two are now fronting eclectic live bands, conjuring up emo-tinged electronica speckled with punk, grunge and indie.

Artist bios:

Saoirse Dream

Equally at home in a hardcore basement show in Iowa or a warehouse furry rave in Seattle, saoirse dream is the hyperpop-project-turned-emo-band of artist Catherine Egbert. For years, Egbert’s virtuosic production chops and innate pop sensibilities have earned her place as a cult-beloved star of the online hyperpop scene. Now, she’s ready to show the world that she’s so much more than her laptop. Since releasing her self-titled record in February of last year, Egbert and her band have played more than 80 shows across North America and Europe. Cutting their teeth on the DIY touring circuit, the ensemble has been featured on lineups with emo and hyperpop mainstays alike, including Anamanaguchi, Food House, Michael Cera Palin, your arms are my cocoon, Devi McCallion, stomach book, and more.

Estelle Allen

As a Berklee dropout and student of fellow trans-femme artists such as SOPHIE and Laura Les - estelle allen believes in having a strong musical understanding, and then tearing apart its foundations in search of a feeling. Whether pulling from classics such as D’Angelo’s, Voodoo, or pacing trap drums to waltz time, estelle is hard to predict and harder not to laugh manically with while she stirs her Logic cauldron in the bedroom studio of her apartment in Brooklyn, NY

A veteran of the Southern California band scene, she cut her teeth at house shows and on grimy tours while fronting Fashion Jackson - a band made up of high school friends and fellow students of Glen Fisher’s San Diego music class - as the vocalist and lead guitar. While this time helped shape her understanding and appreciation for the process, it wouldn’t be until she left the band that she would find her true voice. A voice often found over tracks rooted in acoustic guitar and pure songwriting, before erupting into her signature explosive production style.

+ amazing local openers TBA!
