THE Breath visit SVA, The Goods Shed in Stroud this Friday (May 5).
The Breath came to life in 2016 with a wonderfully understated and under-the-radar album ‘Carry Your Kin’, released on Peter Gabriel’s Real World Records.
The Breath is Stuart McCallum (former guitarist of The Cinematic Orchestra), Irish singer Rioghnach Connolly and McCallum's fellow Cinematic alumni, pianist John Ellis and drummer Luke Flowers.
Born out of Manchester's fertile music scene they mix Irish folk influences with mesmerizing guitar riffs, anthemic themes and powerful hooks. Connolly's soulful vocals are interwoven into the electronic fabric of McCallum's distinctive soundworld.
In turns hypnotic, lush, powerfully raw and raucously punchy, their songs entrance and uplift as The Breath conjure a kaleidoscope of sound that perfectly frames Connolly's raw songs and vocals.
- 8pm. Tickets £10 adv/£12otd. Visit jazzstroud.org for more
