Tender

Tender bring their nocturnal electronic pop to EartH Theatre, London, on 30 October 2026. The London duo of James Cullen and Dan Cobb writes slow-blooming songs carried by a clear, melodic voice, hushed synths and minimalist rhythms that nod to R&B as much as to indie pop. Born in home studios and first shared online, their music keeps a direct, intimate tone: lyrics turn around relationships, emotional dependence and the small fractures of daily life, while repetition shapes a calm, insistent pulse.

On stage, the pair layers soft-grained synth textures, lean basslines and skeletal beats, letting hooks surface without crowding the space. The set draws across their catalogue, from early self-produced EPs to Modern Addiction and Fear of Falling Asleep, with arrangements that favour contrast and restraint over volume. Present on independent stages and in several film and series soundtracks, Tender bring studio-shaped precision to a live format that leans into late-night atmospheres.
