A back-to-basics live music show where the focus is on the music, the artists and their performances.

Nigel Godrich opens this inaugural series with three very special performances. The incredible White Stripes perform 5 songs, including Ugly As I Seem and Red Rain. The Shins from Portland, Oregon play a selection of tracks from their new critically acclaimed album 'Wincing The Night Away' and Neil Hannon, of Divine Comedy fame delights too. From The Basement begins as it means to go on.

Just another week in the basement: another evening of awe inspiring live performances await. Thom Yorke performs on the piano, Albert Hammond Jnr shines bright and newcomers the Envelopes make their mark. One of Thom Yorke's four songs is 'Last Flowers', an as yet unreleased Radiohead track. Enjoy.
