Moulettes Acoustic
Following a summer season of Acoustic and Electric shows Moulettes are delighted to announce a Canadian & UK Acoustic Tour in continued celebration of their gigantic & groundbreaking fifth album project, Xenolalia.
Stretching the boundaries of expectation as they move between Cellos, classical & steel string Guitars, Viola, Piano, Violin, Harp, Percussion & harmony vocals, be prepared to question all you think you know about the traditional chamber ensemble! This is eclectic music for Indie, Experimental, Folk and Classical lovers alike; a delicious interplay of dramatic orchestration, big riffs, string baths & kaleidoscopic lushness.
Through this daring ensemble, Moulettes explore the resonant beauty of these acoustic instruments with ambition, ingenuity and poise. Choosing to intimate venues where the audience are close enough to become part of the sixth-sense synergy that makes ensemble playing so magical to witness.
Stage times: Lee Westwood 8-8.30pm / interval / Moulettes 8.50-10.05pm
As always with live events, timings can be affected on the day so please allow some wiggle room in your travel plans
"Immaculate & thrilling female harmony vocals and unexpected instrumentation. This is a compelling and original band.”
“Orchestral folk at its finest, Divine harmonies”
"Equal parts Kronos quartet, Roxy Music, Frank Zappa, Kate Bush...echoes of early Pink Floyd, Bowie and Radiohead...the electronica of Kraftwerk and the acoustic melody of Pentangle. Precise, carefully crafted and genre-defying"
