Dark synth pop + hypnagogic bedroom lo-fi pop pioneer Nikki Nevver of Terror Bird (Rough Trade / Felte / Adagio 830) sings live with a 4 piece all female live band playing synths and bass.
Terror Bird has dazzled at festivals and shared the stage with TR/ST, The Human League, Cosmetics, Sally Dige, M!R!M, Future Islands and toured with Molly Nilsson, Die Selektion, and Patriarchy. Their long awaited new album “Deathless, Wild and Free” + their singles “In Photographs” (a collab with Jason Corbett of Actors producing) and “The Cold Now” with Silent Star came out this year! Select synth versions from the song co-produced with Jason Corbett (Actors) will be performed live along with favourites from Secret Rituals, All This Time, and more cult favourites including the Toronto based Odonis Odonis collaboration, Brilliant Things, Cemeteries + Waiting for Nothing.
—SILENT STAR— London
Silent Star are a coldwave/synthpop duo from London whose “sparkling, soaring synth waves” embody “the rhythm of concrete walls”. They amassed close to 200,000 plays on YouTube after being picked up by Young & Cold Records, who took the band under their wing on the back of the success of their self-released debut single Star Of The Sea. The label released Silent Star’s first 12″ EP, The Cross Of Stamford Hill, which was followed by another single, The Estuary Shore — the first fruit of their work with Y&C producer Daniel Hallhuber. This spring they release another, The Cold Now, a duet with the Terror Bird singer and Sally Dige collaborator Nikki Nevver, featuring mixes by Hallhuber and the Antipole associate Paris Alexander.
