OCM Presents

Simon Bookish + Leafcutter John, Support: Stuart Chalmers

11.02.2012 at 7:30 PM – 10:00 PM

Modern Art Oxford

Simon Bookish + Leafcutter John will be performing a special set of strange and delicate new versions of the Bookish back catalogue with live electronics.

Simon Bookish is Leo Chadburn, a vocalist and composer whose music strays between pop and something more experimental. He has made guest appearances on albums by Patrick Wolf, Saint Etienne and Max de Wardener and has created remixes for artists including Franz Ferdinand, Grizzly Bear and Late of the Pier.   

'[Simon Bookish’s] recordings abound in little innovations, both sonic and lyrical.' Pitchfork.

Leafcutter John creates beautifully delicate electronica, layering sounds (often captured from nature), acoustic instruments and emotive vocals. He is also a member of Polar Bear (Mercury Prize nominees).

'[Leafcutter John is] one of the UK’s most fearlessly inventive electronicists' Time Out London.

Stuart Chalmers supports with glitchy, low-fi electronica created using acoustic samples, cassette tape technology and loop pedals.

Tickets: £10 / £7 concessions, booking essential via OCM on 01865 305305 / www.ocmevents.org
