The Quietus Presents: Grumbling Fur & Heterotic (feat. Gravenhurst) + Gravenhurst (solo set)

Event information

We're celebrating the end of the Quietus' fifth birthday year with a special gig on December 16th, 2013. Headlining will be Grumbling Fur, whose album Glynaestra has united tQHQ in love & joy throughout 2013. Rest of the bill TBA, but whet your appetite with our a snippet from our review, thus:

"Grumbling Fur make me want to take drugs. And I don't mean drugs like a few puffs on a spliff before bedtime or on a lazy Saturday afternoon, or a cheeky dabble at a rave to keep the energy flowing - I mean proper, don't-eat-for-18-hours-beforehand, make-sure-you've-got-a-couple-of-good-people-around-you, psychically prepared voyaging, preferably on a warm and sunny but slightly overcast afternoon in a field somewhere in the West Country, or in a friend's house cluttered to the rafters with fascinating and peculiar objects. On their second album Glynnaestra, the duo of Alexander Tucker and Daniel O'Sullivan conjure up a wonderfully evocative and distinctly British kitchen sink psychedelia, an intimate shared space where the whistle of a kettle and the clatter of pots and pans can sit seamlessly alongside heavily reverbed 80s pop synths, expansive rural landscapes, delectably ludicrous choruses and invocations to imaginary deities."
