You really need to hear their amazing harmonies and watch out for that didgeridoo!\n\nDots are Nicki & Les\, a dynamic electronic duo from Greater Manchester. Together they serve up a crazy cocktail of synth pop and early blues\, mixing the sounds of Kraftwerk with the spirit of Hound Dog Taylor\, topped with a generous sprinkling of humour!/\n\nTaylor Giacoma is a singer\, pianist\, composer\, conductor\, arranger\, tutor\, and founder of Semitone Studios.\n\nThe music she writes and performs is often mistaken for something from a musical or Disney film\, and though it doesn’t fall neatly into any one genre it is often described as musical theatre/pop crossover.\nEven her covers\, which range from early 20th century musical theatre to lyrical versions of hard rock songs\, are unique. Known primarily for her original music\, she writes highly unusual\, narrative songs inspired by topics ranging from love and loss to cataclysmic magnetic stars\, time dilation\, and fourth century saints.\n\n“Sweeping effortlessly from dark\, intense classical influences\, to a serene yet forlorn folk sound in a matter of a single verse\, you’ll find yourself away on a musical journey\, wondering how on earth that last song switched genre and style without you even noticing.” – Tom Hodgson\, Dharmajunk\n\nPurchase tickets from the venue or online\nOnly £10\n\n\n\n Purchase from the venue anytime from now up until the event.\n\n\nPurchase E-Tickets (make sure to leave your email address in the message) https://monzo.me/thomasjones28\n\n\n Ask to be put on the guest-list and pay on the night.
