Love Love Live
Mark Jones, pioneer behind Wall of Sound invites you to experience some of his favourite new discoveries, in a series of new music happenings, he presents Love Love Live.
Tonight, art-pop luminaries Adam & Elvis head-up proceedings, oozing an up-tempo romanticism, as lead singer, Patrick’s deep, bombastic vocals dance around vibrant harmonics. They share a provocative outlook, with a deeply bizarre and poetic lyricism, bizarre and comedic, accompanied by shimmering guitars, dirty basslines and quirky synths. Their recent album release, ‘Pub Grub’ was met with support from press and radio alike and the brothers return to their hometown, following a UK tour around: London, Bristol, Bath, Liverpool and Leeds.
“Their track The Artiste takes you gently by the hand and draws you down a hypnotizing route that leads to some surprising places.” *Steve Lamcq, 6Music**
“Big Pixies-sized singalongs and subversive choruses which threaten to match the early charm of The Teardrop Explodes” Artrocker
“Strangely infectious, it’s impossible not to be lured in by the wonderfully wacky energy and quirky charisma of Adam & Elvis.” Gigslutz*
The Purple Lights, return with their unique blend of rock, reggae and smattering of loopstation magic, a sound that evokes the upbeat buoyancy of Vampire Weekend amongst a surge of Afrobeat wig-outs reminiscent of Fuck Buttons. Having just released Lake, they take a step out of the studio, where they have been preparing for the release of their debut EP in 2019.
'watch as an atmosphere of studied cool turns into glorious carnage', *GIITTV***
