Good gig tomorrow night with two touring acts playing at Brig Below With Trappist Afterland from Australia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J54-xh1ab 08
Joined by Moongazing Hare from Denmark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qH9F-0je ic
Tickets still available here:... https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/trappist-a fterland-aus-moong…
More info-Trappist Afterland(Australia) make folk music using vocals, various acoustic stringed instruments; tabla, percussion, harmonium and tanpura drones. They explore psychedelia and chanting amidst folk songs. Although the influence of folk music from various sectors around the world can be heard in Trappist Afterland's music (The British folk revival, 70's acid folk, Gamelan music, Middle Eastern music, Indian raga) they still maintain a unique and almost otherworldly quality, that sounds unlike anyone else. With lyrical explorations delving into Gnosticism, Christian mysticism and other esoteric themes, Trappist still manage to keep their music firmly grounded in the present while maintaining a timeless quality. Moongazing Hare (Denmark) I try to keep myself warm, calm, loved and out of harm's way. The music is desperately home made and mostly well-intentioned.
