Prodotti dalla mitica etichetta NINJA TUNES (Bonobo, Amon Tobin, Fink, Kelis..) siamo lieti di ospitare in città il tour dei GRASSCUT che si presenteranno con un live set e una video performance.
Grasscut are composer/producer/vocalist/musician Andrew Phillips and manager/musician Marcus O’Dair. Phillips, who writes and produces all Grasscut music, is also known for his soundtrack work.
Grasscut previously released two albums on Ninja Tune. 1 Inch: ½ Mile (2010) was Mojo magazine’s electronica album of the month, one of iDJ’s debut albums of the year and one of the top ten pop albums of the year according to the Sunday Telegraph. Speaking to the Quietus site, Tom Robinson of BBC 6 Music named it one of his top 13 albums of all time. According to the Independent, the band’s 2012 follow-up, Unearth, should have been on the Mercury list. Both records won 5-star reviews from the Telegraph.
Grasscut have worked with musicians including Robert Wyatt, John Surman, Adrian Crowley, the Kronos Quartet, Gazelle Twin, Seb Rochford (Polar Bear) and members of the Elysian Quartet. Since opening the main stage at the Big Chill in 2009, they have become known for their audio-visual live show, originally conceived with As Described (Portishead, Cinematic Orchestra) and now developing in collaboration with the Austrian VJs Luma Launisch (Cluster, Groove Armada). They have performed at Cecil Sharp House, Union Chapel, the ICA, Koko and Tate Britain, as well as in France, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Holland, Czech Republic, Portugal, Poland and Slovakia.
