The electic Stereo Sanctity night returns to Norwich on 10th May for a gourmet selection of aural treats for your delectation.
Miki Berenyi Trio
Fronted by Miki Berenyi of shoegaze legends Lush, the Miki Berenyi Trio (or MB3) play Stereo Sanctity following the release of their debut album 'Tripla', out in April on the very fantastic Bella Union record label.
A new chapter, a new-line-up, a newly minted sound; 'Tripla' is a landmark record for its three creators: Miki Berenyi, KJ ‘Moose ’McKillop and Oliver Cherer. The album’s richly layered, imaginative and uniquely slanted strain of dream pop is an often euphoric and sometimes melancholic mix of guitars and electronica, fronted by Miki’s instantly recognisable vocal, overlaid with an often profound and sometimes abrasive or yearning view of the world. The trio’s dynamic beauty is illustrated by the album’s lead single and opening track ‘8th Deadly Sin’, subtly influenced by dance music but equally driven by a shoegaze-y dynamic, a combination accomplished with finesse and a barrage of gorgeous hooks. The track is coupled with Moose’s ecoprotesting lyric, or as he puts it, “the absolute disrespect for Mother Earth.” “D’you understand the mess we’re in?” Miki sings. “So what’s the plan, Action Man? / Silly boys / broken toys.”
Plantoid
Occupying the middle slot of the night are the incredible Brighton based band Plantoid, whose music effortlessly spans indie/rock/jazz/psych/fusion.They released their debut album 'Terrapath' last year on the mighty fine Bella Union label and and have been going from strength to strength ever since. They are an absolute treat!
