This month's Power Down gig at Metropolis Studios, Chiswick, held in association with Mixlr.com and PRS for Music, will be streamed right here on M online tonight.

Join us right here from 8pm for a fantastic soundtrack to your evening.

This month, The Moulettes, Black Hay, Daisy Beau, and Jake Mattison will take to the stage. Find out more about the performers below.

The Moulettes
The Moulettes’ entrancing combination of strings, harmonies, dischords and devilry has lead to comparisons with The Unthanks, Jethro Tull, Tom Waits and Shostakovitch. Lead Moulette, Hannah Miller is, in fact, currently working on Adrian McNally of The Unthanks solo project. While violinist Georgina Leach is also part of Seasick Steve’s musical team. Ex-Moulette Ted Dwane, now of Mumford & Sons, has returned to the fold to play on the band’s second album, and acclaimed folk-blues songstress and long-time collaborator, Liz Green, also contributes. The stunning result, entitled The Bear’s Revenge,  is due out in June 2012. Their first album was described by MOJO as - “Complex and beautiful…intriguing and unique…” This one is even better…

Black Hay

Having been described as "Worse than Leonard Cohen" and "A voice you'd roll over in bed for" Black Hay is the kind of music that still has dirt under its fingernails and drools lecherously. Currently prowling across London to promote the Debut EP. This is the kind of music you’d hide and keep secret from your mother if you were a teenager.

Daisy Beau
With a musical background that covers almost every genre, this London girl's voice has an instantly recognisable clarity. Versatile vocals apply themselves to ominous love songs; a melting pot of jazz, folk and city ditties.

Jake Mattison
With a voice that can stun-silence the rowdiest of crowds, Jake Mattison is someone whose experiences are worth listening to. His songs inhabit the sort of real life that includes love and loss and addiction and desire.
"Writes wonderful, heartfelt songs... strung out in the ether somewhere between Tim Buckley and Michael Kiwanuka" - Rob Fitzpatrick, The Guardian
"Imagine Adam Duritz from Counting Crows after a night gargling sand and you come somewhere close to the depth and richness of Mattison's vocal. When this man sings about sorrow, you believe him" - Clash Magazine
