Bunty Live: World HQ

This Event has passed
This special show takes place downstairs in the Club as part of Buntys Uk Tour that also takes in Camdens Jazz Cafe in London & shows in Norwich, Bristol, Oxford & Brighton too. This epic audio visual feast features the stunning bespoke visuals of VJ metaLuna, performers Poppy Kay & Zoe Padley, megalithic beats from Dave the Machine & an audience choir. Complete with its own homemade light show, special FX  & a whole lot of helium to suck you into a raucous avant pop party. Brightons Kassia Zermon aka Bunty, is a unique force best known for pioneering underground experimental vocal loop shows & fronting UK leading Dub act Resonators. Buntys distinctive voice has been championed by the likes of Rodigan, Mark Lamar & BBC6 taste-makers Tom Robinson & Lauren Laverne. Hard to fit into any box, this ladys influences are huge, bringing her Morrocan-Londoner roots to create her own blend of raw avant-pop music. Live, Bunty uses synths, toys, ukulele, voice, effects pedals & a mash-up of real & made-up languages & brings to World HQ something fascinatingly original. Bunty has performed at many main UK festivals Glastonbury, Bestival, Secret Garden; & she has played with a huge variety of acts such as Jamie Woon, Shlomo, Kate Tempest & Susheela Raman. Supporting Bunty is The Ladies of Midnight Blue, an Afro-Latin percussion & brass duet who have performed all over the world for various festivals, charity benefits, peace rallies, and protest marches. Their music consists of powerful and upbeat combinations of percussion, brass, vocal chants, and mbira arrangements that inspires dancing and calls for audience participation. Today, the duet is comprised of Hannabiell Sanders Percussion, Bass Trombone, mbira, and voice, and Yilis Del Carmen Suriel  Percussion, mbira. In the last 7 years they have been workshop facilitators and guest artists for youth programs, grade schools, universities, and community organizations. Their art and music workshops focus on community building and raising awareness concerning issues of inequality on all levels.
