Klub Zoo Gang: Two Wings & Jordan Hunt
Klub Zoo Gang spotlights a diverse range of cutting-edge music being produced just south of the radar. Tonight’s London installment features TWO WINGS and JORDAN HUNT. With one foot in the English folk scene, and one foot deeper than G&R’s mothers ever allowed them to swim, the Glasgow quartet TWO WINGS features soaring female vocals, uniquely balanced harmonies, and an almost militaristic insistence on feel-good stomp.
Having cut his teeth as a member of international art-pop orchestra The Irrepressibles, and Canadian band The Hidden Cameras, composer and performer JORDAN HUNT now offers his own unique interpretation of song, weaving emotional melodic pop and symphonic-inspired textures within a vivid minimal landscape.
TWO WINGS
Borne of a song-writing collaboration between singer/multi-instrumentalist/visual artist Hanna Tuulikki (Nalle, Scatter, The Family Elan) and guitarist/singer Ben Reynolds (Baby Dee, Trembling Bells, Alasdair Roberts, Tompkins Square Records), Two Wings draws upon both musicians' thematic fixation with love, death, spirituality, as well as a passion for the song-writing craft in its myriad forms... from its roots in folk tradition, forward to the advent of rock n roll and beyond. Two Wings' line-up is completed by vocalist Lucy Duncombe, bassist Kenny Wilson and drummer Owen Curtis Williams.
JORDAN HUNT
"In a world overpopulated with generic pop singers and endless rock stars, Acne Studios preferred the sound of JORDAN HUNT, a composer and performer with an unconventional approach to a typically conservative genre. At the forefront of contemporary classical music, Jordan constructs his music as he creates his costume designs – mixing incongruous elements into surprising harmonies." Jordan Hunt is joined by Charlie Stock (viola), James Field (percussion), Sarah Kershaw (piano) and Nicole Robson (cello)
