Brief Encounters Presents:
Bby Eco presents Sky (i)
+ Cyst (fka Iglooghost & Babii)
Bby Eco brings a Europe and UK tour to Bristol, heralding the release of his transformative third album Sky (i)
Bby Eco is the artist name of Joris Benjamins (b. 1996), the Amsterdam-based musician whose audiovisual works document the transformation of inner experience into elemental, playful and spiritual worlds. Following two years after his last releases, Sky (i) came to be a documentation of the transformative power of love: ”It confronts the harrowing crisis of personal loss I was faced with, with an all pervasive and forgiving strength received from the world, and directed within. Casting a renewed sense of presence, a place to be, wherein I welcome all of life in the elemental space that I call Sky (i).
Bby Eco will perform the new album live, and invites Cyst (Iglooghost and BABii) to join the night.
Cyst is a new secret band consisting of Daisy & Seamus (fka BABii & Iglooghost.) They make horrid songs about oozing skin rashes and being stalked by an orange bunny. They are set to release their first music on LUCKYME in 2026.
Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
