Mesadorm bring their magic to Postlip Hall this autumn as part of their tour promoting new album Epicadus -- and magic it will be. Epicadus sees the band re-imagine songs from their acclaimed debut album Heterogaster and some new compositions using purely timbres from acoustic instruments.
Mesadorm is a collaborative project between Blythe Pepino, Aaron Zahl, Daisy Palmer (Paloma Faith, Goldfrapp, MIKA), Jo Silverston (The Unthanks, Red Clay Halo, Frank Turner, Spindle Ensemble) and David Johnston (ZunZun Egui, Phil King, Chairfight!).
The relationships in the project go back many years and have a distinctly Bristol centred heritage. After a few years testing the mainstream stage with a major record deal Pepino moved back to her roots as a left-field, art-rock and electronica song-writer. Here you will find her in happy harmony with Aaron Zahl who has recorded and produced the eagerly anticipated first album fleshing out the musical world with his electronic sound scapery. Having known each other since they were teenagers and weathered various phases of life and musical outfits, Zahl, Pepino, Palmer, Johnston and Silverston have a unique connection that plays out in this project with depth and assuredness. The writing sits somewhere between the domestic observation of Suzanne Vega and the powerful, elemental other-worldliness of Bjork.
“I'm absolutely addicted….Really affecting and beautiful.” Lauren Laverne, BBC 6 Music
"I love [it] a beautiful record…” Huw Stephens, BBC Radio 1
“Melodies that originate in the left field soothing, genuine, and perplexing a real jewel.” Clash Magazine
