Music Network presents: GoGo Penguin

Saturday 31st October, 2015 - 20:00 - 23:00

€12 – €15

Packing the dance floors with an infectious combination of frenetic break-beats, irresistible piano melodies and subtle electronica, GoGo Penguin first came to prominence in 2014 after their album, v2.0, was named a Mercury Prize Album of the Year in 2014, alongside offerings from the likes of Damon Albarn.

Undoubtedly one of the rising stars of the UK Jazz scene, this Mancunian piano trio is equally at home playing to clubbers and dyed-in-the-wool jazz fans.

With a three album Blue Note Records deal under their belt, and a recent win at the Jazz FM Awards (for Jazz Act of the Year), this is a band you’d be mad to miss.

“…techno, hip-hop and dubstep are glimpsed here, but for all the looping motifs and dance floor vibes, this is the work of three sure-footed improvisers with deep jazz roots…“ THE GUARDIAN

“A stirring re-evaluation of what a piano trio should sound like in the 21st century.” BARCLAYCARD MERCURY PRIZE
