We are thrilled to host the UK premiere of Little Eden: The Story of The Bevis Frond, the new documentary from the makers of The Ballad of Shirley Collins film!
This is the extraordinary story of independent music pioneers The Bevis Frond, told over the course of a single semi-fictional day in the life of songwriter Nick Saloman, and how he achieved his goal of never having to get a regular job.
The Bevis Frond’s music has been covered by a host of musicians including The Lemonheads, Teenage Fanclub, Elliott Smith and Juliana Hatfield, while iconic bands like Pavement and Dinosaur Jr also acknowledge their influence.
