Socks and Ballerinas + Omvros + Hexcut live at The Louisiana, Bristol. Thursday, 9th January 2025
Socks and Ballerinas is an instrumental live looping duo based in Bristol, UK, consisting of Leonardo Calamati (guitar, bass and synths) and Katalin Helfenbein (drums).
Hexcut, formed in Newcastle upon Tyne in 2016, they are just 2 members, although they sound like a 5 piece band.
In their recently released second album “A Bit Jumpy” they fuse distorted and electronic melodies with a good dose of danceable ear-worms. Their music is like a roller coaster: ups and downs, double speed, sudden stops, reversing and unexpected ending.
Hexcut are a quartet of piano, electronics, drums and bass from Bristol, UK, which blend elements of rock, jazz and electronic dance music into a sound which defies genre yet appeals to many. Their influences come from many different corners of music, from Gogo Penguin to High Contrast to Deftones! Hexcut have shared stages with a diverse range of popular artists including LITE, Blank Banshee and Mildlife, as well as gaining slots at major festivals such as Boomtown and ArcTanGent.
“Hexcut are an electric band that specialise in massive synth sounds and insane basslines,
combining electronic dance music, jazz and garage these guys are an eclectic sound which
is totally deafening (in the best way possible).” Tap The Feed
“Bristol group mine a vein of gloriously jazzy piano led math rock.” Overblown
“They are ripping bloody-toothed into an interstellar set that brings this reporter to his knees
in adoration.” Yack
“[Hexcut] fuse elements of jazz, drum & bass and electronica to create a soundscape as arresting as it is innovative.” Epigram
“Piano-led group whose fluid sound is very attuned to contemporary jazz and dance music.” Bristol 24/7
Show starts at 8:00pm.
