Get The Blessing with support: Molecular

 Registration is closed for this event
After fifteen years, Bristol's powerhouse post-jazz quartet Get The Blessing can still lay claim to its original line up: Jake McMurchie, sax and electronics; Pete Judge, trumpet and electronics; Jim Barr, bass and electronics, and Clive Deamer, drums.

GTB is currently touring Europe-wide to promote its fifth album Astronautilus (Naim Records), including a very welcome station stop in Stroud. Expect pounding rhythms, spacious atmospheres and strongly-crafted melodies – plus, of course, the unpredictability and musical mischievousness that have made this band so exciting and successful.

Molecular is a "feel" oriented collection of players and ideas that likes the steady yet shape-shifting spirit of improvisation. Simonelli's poems take on variable structures and tones when confronted with the random and intuitive play of Wright's musical alterations, and neither music, nor words ever settle into a precise definition. This particular incarnation of the group will include Simon Goff (And the Wiremen) on violin, Sam Ospovat (Enablers) on drums, and Algis Kizys (ex-Swans, Of Cabbages and Kings) on bass. A backdrop to each performance will feature live projections made especially for this tour.This is the first UK tour by this unconventional group of highly skilled US based musicians...
