Event Information
Nice to be working with Stick In The Wheel for the first time!
Their work is rooted in traditional music and song, informed by the modern electronic music that grew out of their hybrid East London heritage. This radical East London duo are known for their intense live shows exploring the raw holler of folk, electronica, spoken word and intricate rustic dobro guitar. Nicola Kearey and Ian Carter make full-force reworkings of centuries-old work-songs, speaking to contemporary issues of class, using multi-layered sonic palettes to deeply reflect hidden histories, told with a razor-sharp authenticity. Stick In The Wheel have created their own London vernacular, a contemporary roots music that celebrates the collective stories and traditions of the city - as part of a continuum of vibrant cultures, conjuring the past to point toward the future.
