✮✮ SWING ‘N’ TINGZ 10 // 2nd BIRTHDAY!! ✮✮ ELECTRIC SWING CIRCUS // THE INEXPLICABLES // THE PHUNK JUNKIES // RAZZOMO & many more

“A mighty fine mashup of all tingz Swing, Ghetto Funk, Hip Hop, Dutty Riddims and Festival fun times curiously combined with live performers, decadent decor and gleeful goings ons”

This is going to be a very special show for three big reasons! Firstly it is our 10th show in Bristol and our 2nd Birthday. What an amazing two years it has been, we’ve booked some amazing acts from across the UK and even the world. We’ve had some brilliant themes and some amazing performances from some very talented people. This is going to be the biggest and best show we’ve done yet! Expect cake, balloons and Swing’n’Tingz times TEN!

The second reason is it’s the end of term for the universities, the last chance to go out and party before everyone slinks off home to eat themselves into a warm christmassy coma.

And finally, the most exciting reason for this to be such a special show. We have the kings of swing, ELECTRIC SWING CIRCUS!

Featuring:

The Electric Swing Circus is a 6-piece fusion of saucy 20′s swing and stomping electro beats. With an explosive sound that reverberates back through time, the ESC hotfoot their way through everything from breakbeat and house to reggae and dubstep, all with their own unique style of swing.

A full time, touring band on the international circuit, the ESC’s live set includes electric double bass, vintage samples, gypsy-jazz guitar, keys, drums, synths and electro beats. Fronted by a sassy female double-act, the ESC delivers a consistently dazzling show. Their debut, self-titled album is available now on Ragtime Records.

The ESC line-up features Laura Louise and Bridget Walsh (vocals), Chandra Walker (drums and keyboard), Tom Hyland (guitar), Rashad Gregory (synth, sampling and programming) and Patrick Wreford (bass & bass synth).

It’s been a while since any of the heavier Tremor residents have taken to our stage. But this show is just the one for it.

Together they have gained much recognition in the festival circuit with their tunes been hammered all this summer. Expect a journey through funky breaks right into the heaviest reaches of Jungle.
