Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Sell out warning! Freewheeling cultureclash orchestra traversing free jazz, post-punk highlife and minimalist classical with transcendental results. Think Sonic Youth + Glen Branca’s downtown NY guitar ensemble covering Fela Kuti and you’re not even close (maybe Sons of Kemet raiding the Philip Glass’ songbook is closer…but you’ll have to see for yourself).

A gig held at The Jam Jar on Friday 14th October. The event starts at 19:00.
The Jam Jar are proud to invite a truly unique musical collective from Geneva to Bristol.
This 12 piece fuse musical styles into an uncategoriseable eruption of sounds: grooving trombone riffs, soaring string arrangements, guitar jangles, marimba stabs and polyrhythmic percussion all come alive in an energetic concoction of afro-avantgarde, folk harmony, repeating minimalist electronica fusion and tropical symphonic post punk.
Perhaps best to take a listen yourselves - the 5th recorded outing ‘We’re OK, But We’re Lost Anyway’ comes highly recommended for a dive into the sonic world of OTP Marcel Duchamp.
We cannot wait to experience this rare treat live and direct.
