After the sell out success of their first gig at the beautiful St John's church in the centre of Bristol, Ålesund thought it a fitting place to officially launch their first single: Shift & Flux. The natural acoustic and beautiful setting make for a very different and special gig.

For anyone who hasn't been, the church is the little hole-in-the-wall just off Broad Street, under the arch on Nelson Street. It's the perfect venue for an intimate and intense night of music. It's also a major part of Bristol’s cultural heritage, with its stunning Gothic city gate and elegant perpendicular spire.

Food and snacks (wine, beer, cider, tea and soft drinks plus some sweet treats) will be served until 23:00.

Tickets £5 in advance £7 OTD.

Ålesund

So far they've spent 2018 festival-ing, gigging, writing and finishing off their EP produced by Jake Bright (Svelte, Doeray, Kate Stapley.) A collection of four beautifully crafted songs with a sparse, yet powerful quality. The immersive sounds of rolling drums, intricate guitar work, and soaring vocals, display Ålesund as an atmospheric force from the trip hop heartland - masters of their own expansive, emotive and exhilarating worlds of sound.
