EGYPTIAN BLUE
Support: BELOW ZERO
Einlass: 19:00 | VVK:17EUR | TICKETSmiley face | AK: 21 EUR
Every element of Egyptian Blue’s angular and uncompromising sound brings with it an urgency that is both rare and vital. Their duo of critically acclaimed EP’s to date, both released via Yala! Records, have made the Brighton-based band a compelling proposition. Between their jolting, groove-orientated post-punk attack and their polemic lyrical approach, the quartet made moves in all of the right places. The tracks ‘Collateral’ and ‘Nylon Wire’ were playlisted at BBC 6Music, while further support came from Jack Saunders, Steve Lamacq, John Kennedy and artistic peers including Joe Talbot (IDLES) and Yannis Philippakis (Foals).

Lifelong friends Andy Buss and Leith Ambrose formed the band in their hometown of Colchester (UK) with bassist Luke Phelps. Initially practicing above a jewellery shop, they were the epitome of a band reacting to the mundanity of their surroundings. Early jams often devolved into marathon sessions of fourteen hours or more, made all the more chaotic by the amount of whisky they’d share as well as the growing attention of the local police. Relocating to Brighton, a turning point came at a King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard gig. Seeing a band that well-drilled made them rethink the work ethic that their own project required. The addition of drummer Isaac Ide completed the jigsaw, offering a more intense direction for the band, together with a fresh rush of creativity.
Their debut album is due for release in 2023 via Yala! Records.

Als Support sind Below Zero dabei:

Below Zero sind Jonathan Frach (Drums/Gesang) und Max Gärtner (Gitarre/Bass) - zwei junge, talentierte Musiker aus Bremen, die ihren Stil selbst als Alternative-Garage-Rock bezeichnen. Die beiden liefern in besonderer musikalischer Kombination eine regelrechte Wand an Sound. Auf der Bühne begeistern sie mit einer energischen Bühnenpräsenz und einer mitreißenden Show. Das spannende und hoffnungsvolle Rock-Duo gibt es gerade erst zwei Jahre. Nach 30 Konzerten mit Wacken, Kieler Woche und Breminale als Highlights in 2023, begleiteten sie im neuen Jahr 2024 die junge Durchstarterin Damona auf ihrer ausverkauften Clubtour und supporteten Cryssis mit Tote-Hosen-Drummer Vom Ritchie in Düsseldorf. Am 10. Mai veröffentlichen Below Zero ihre Debüt-EP „Blood In The Water“ und feiern den Release eine Woche später in Bremen. Anschließend begleiten sie die britischen Post-Punk-Newcomer Egyptian Blue auf drei Konzerten ihrer Deutschland-Tour.
