The Brackish + Foot Foot + Surface Air & The Noise at The Thunderbolt

A gig held at The Thunderbolt on Thursday 14th March. The event starts at 20:00.


THE BRACKISH
The Brackish are a 4-piece experimental band from Bristol, UK. First formed in 2012, the band have released five albums and are finalising their sixth.
Constantly evolving, the band draws inspiration from a wide range of musical influences, art, films, places and people.
The Brackish sound is characterised by its use of dynamics, long-form composition and improvisation. Face melting heavyness gives way to gentle, spacious soundscapes within a single composition. Kraut-like grooves, polyrhythms, violent melodic statements and psychedelic, freeform improvisation are present in equal measure. Always expressed with a strong emphasis on melody and narrative, aiming to take the listener on journeys of much needed escapism.

FOOT FOOT
In the vanguard of the emerging Bristol underground scene, Foot Foot have drawn on the traditions of folk, math-rock, & discordant post-rock to produce their intricate brand of songcraft, creating moments of serenity & stillness before launching into fast, jagged rhythms. Their use of contrasts -indie-flecked songwriting with irregular, winding passages, or rich violin & vocal melodies with avante-jazz freakouts - have marked them out as one of the scene's most innovative & impactful live acts.

SURFACE AIR & THE NOISE
An intriguing new project from Oli (My Octopus Mind) - so new they had to come up with a name to put on the poster for this event!

Entry requirements: no age restrictions
