A southern artist will be playing at a theatre in Carlisle next month. 

Wyse, a musician from Portsmouth, will be performing at Harraby Theatre. 

She recently performed at The Source in Denton Holme which was a major success so have decided to make a return to the city. 

As Wyse is an LGBTQI+ musician Cumbria Pride will be at the event to provide conversation and advice to people, along with supporting Wyse. 

The concert has been organised by RockWith, a Cumbrian-based music promotions company run by promoter Russ Withey. 

Alex Freitas, who regularly gigs around Cumbria will be the support act, with the gig taking place on Thursday, October 19. 

Mr Withey said: "Wyse, who is an artist from Portsmouth, toured the UK back in July and I put a gig on for her at The Source which was really popular. 

"She's now doing another UK tour and will be coming back up to Carlisle again from Portsmouth. 

"She got in touch with me again and asked if there was a venue available for her, so I decided on the cafe bar in Harraby Theatre to showcase her work in a different part of the city. 

"She's already got a good following and played various festivals around the UK, she's had radio play on BBC Introducing and she's just got a different style of music. 

"For example at The Source she even plays the pots and pans at some point."

Wyse's style is described as: "Combining scuzzy hooks with pulsating percussion and roaring passioned vocals which are reminiscent of Bjork. 

"Wyse's songs are slices of guitar-driven dark pop conjoined with progressive alt-alternative rock that reflects her gender-fluid influences including Radiohead and Pink Floyd. 

"It's on October 19 which is a Thursday and tickets are only £5, doors are open at 7 o'clock and we have support from Alex Freitas who's done loads of RockWith gigs, most recently the stage at the Taste Cockermouth food and drink festival."
