Submotion Orchestra return to Bristol for a special, one-off performance to celebrate the release of their ‘Unplugged Vol.ii’ EP, featuring the prism string ensemble, alongside the live band.
Since their inception in 2009, the genre-defying Submotion Orchestra have moved seamlessly between deep electronica, jazz and ambient downtempo, mesmerising audiences from Iceland to India. Now, to mark their second EP of acoustic reworkings of their back catalogue, they expand their lineup with a specially-formed string quartet for this one-time tour. Performing tracks from across their entire career, the band transport their bass-heavy and soulful sound to intimate sit-down venues, highlighting stunning string arrangements alongside the fragile beauty of Ruby Wood’s celestial vocals.
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience Submotion Orchestra as you’ve never heard them before.
