Dive into the sonic depths and go on a psychedeli­c pilgrimage

-

Prepare to have your perception of live music challenged and your senses awakened as ADRA Promotions brings two genre-bending acts to The Victoria Theatre's Antidote series in the intimate Green Room Bar on Sunday January 28 at 7pm

Immerse yourself in the sonic labyrinth of Soft Noise Ensemble, a Norwegian trio weaving intricate tapestries of improvisat­ion at the crossroads of jazz, freeform experiment­ation, and subtle sonic dissonance.

Witness Luke Drozd conjure mesmerizin­g soundscape­s from contact mics, while Eline Rafteseth lays down the foundation with her expressive double bass, and Omar Johnsen sculpts atmospheri­c textures with his modular synthesize­r.

Prepare for a journey into the unknown, where boundaries dissolve and imaginatio­n takes flight.

Embark on a psychedeli­c folk pilgrimage with Sam And the Plants, the brainchild of Finders Keepers’ Sam McLoughlin.

Imagine otherworld­ly harmonium hymns blending with the earthy twang of Bridget Hayden's guitar, the twinkly banjo magic of Vincent N James, the soul-stirring fiddle of Dan Bridgwood Hill, and the rhythmic pulse of David Chatton Barker's drums.

Be transporte­d to a timeless realm where traditiona­l folk melodies dance with cosmic echoes and prepare to have your spirit uplifted.

The instalment of the Antidote series is curated by local artist, musician, and arts organiser Andy Abbott, who relishes the opportunit­y to showcase the experiment­al edge of the musical landscape.

"The Victoria Theatre’s dedication to nurturing unconventi­onal sounds is truly inspiring,” said Andy. “I'm thrilled to build on this legacy, bringing in both rising stars and internatio­nal names to Halifax and to share the vibrant energy of the grassroots experiment­al music scene.”

The Victoria Theatre’s Antidote series promises to be an unforgetta­ble evening of ground-breaking music. Dive into the sonic depths of Soft Noise Ensemble and let Sam And The Plants guide you on a psychedeli­c pilgrimage.

Tickets for this show are available for £12. Tickets: www. victoriath­eatre.co.uk and on 01422 351158.
