Viewed from a distance the masonry of Hendre Hall, a Grade II listed building, rolls perfectly into the countryside landscape, blending with acres of farmland, lakes and rivers, a stunning gem hidden amongst the beauty of the Welsh mountains.

Mindset Records has an impressive artist roster and they are taking the show on the road. Robot Bodypop favourites Indigo and Synkro have invited dBridge, the mighty HoyaHoya and the PYC Collective to the party. This is probably one of the more impressive line-ups we’ve seen all year and the setting is incredibly fitting for the vibe these musicians create.
