with Emma Hunter + Baby Maker - Strummer Room Records Presents…We’re delighted to announce that Oxford legends Beaker will be playing at The Pig Place.Formed in Oxford in 1994, Beaker built a reputation for their unique mix of indie pop, punk, grunge and cabaret energy before splitting in 1999. After more than 25 years away, the band have reunited with a new line-up, new music, and the same raw spirit that made them underground favourites in the Oxford scene.Fresh from a sold-out reunion show at the Jericho Tavern and the release of their new single 50 Men, Beaker are back — louder, sharper, and just as uncompromising as ever.Joining them on the night will be Oxford’s own Emma Hunter, whose cinematic blend of flamenco-inspired guitar, layered vocal loops and haunting melodies has made her one of the most distinctive voices on the Oxford music scene. Mixing atmospheric soundscapes with trip-hop rhythms and powerful harmonies, Emma’s live performances are immersive, dramatic and completely captivating. A regular on the Oxford circuit and a Truck Festival performer, her music channels the spirit of David Lynch, desert noir and late-night cabaret into something entirely her own.After a string of standout solo performances, Baby Maker returns to north Oxfordshire with a full three-piece line-up. Regulars will already know Baby Maker from their electrifying sets at The Apothecary Tap. Fronted by multi-instrumentalist Ruairi Kester, the Oxford-based alt-indie and post-punk project blends dark funk, proto-punk energy, and slinky pop sensibilities. Recent releases include the singles “Inguhlund” and “Rather Be In Berlin”.Expect big hooks, noisy guitars, hypnotic atmospheres and a night of glorious independent music chaos at The Pig Place.This is an 18+ eventThe venue has food and bar facilities on site - PLEASE DO NOT BRING YOUR OWN ALCOHOL
