Pink Martini
Showing: 10th, 11th September
Somewhere between 1930s Cuban dance orchestra, golden-age Hollywood musical, classical chamber ensemble, Brazilian marching band and Japanese film noir is Pink Martini, the Portland-based 12-piece Little Orchestra. Since 1994, classically trained pianist Thomas M. Lauderdale, and fellow Harvard graduate China Forbes, have been making beautiful eclectic music and developing a fan-base as far reaching as their global influences.
Phoenix
Showing: 18th September
The French band Phoenix draws elements from an eclectic '80s upbringing to arrive at their rock-synth sound. Thomas Mars (vocals), Deck d'Arcy (bass), and Christian Mazzalai (guitars) were a garage band based out of Mars' house in the suburbs of Paris.
Vampire Weekend
Showing: 26th September
Indie-punk rockers from New York with two hit albums behind them featuring hits likes 'Oxford Comma', 'A-Punk', 'Holiday' and 'Cousins'.
"A smash hit with a line-up filled with celeb stars on Broadway, the award-winning God Of Carnage comes to LA next summer. Book now for this hilarious play about two sets of parents who meet to discuss the unruly behaviour of their children, only for them to descend to their kids level in the process."
