PANDAMOANIUM and SPLINK

Event information

PANDAMOANIUM are an instrumental melody driven Progressive trio from Canterbury, blending rock, alternative rock, post rock, hard rock, folk and ambient into a genre-defying sound. Emerging in 2016, they have played many multiple band gigs and festivals sharing the stage with such luminaries as Soft Machine, A Formal Horse, Atomic Rooster, Splink, IT, Soulweaver, Pearl Handled Revolver, Famyne and many more.

SPLINK are proud to play what they describe as ‘no rules music’. As they put it themselves:
"WHAT IS NO RULES MUSIC? WELL, WE PLAY MUSIC FROM THE HEART THAT IS SOMETIMES AGGRESSIVE, SOMETIMES LAID BACK, SOMETIMES JAZZY, WE SEE NO REASON WHY TO STICK TO RULES ABOUT HOW CERTAIN MUSICAL GENRE SHOULD BE PLAYED, IF IT SOUNDS GOOD AND TOUCHES THE SOUL THEN WHY NOT.
THE ONE THING THAT TIES US TOGETHER IS THE LOVE OF AND JOY OF MUSIC AND IF YOU PLAY WITH AN OPEN HEART AND MIND THEN HOPEFULLY THE AUDIENCE WILL FEEL THE HONESTY OF THE MUSIC AND COME ALONG FOR THE RIDE, COME AND ENJOY THE JOURNEY WITH US."
Splink’s third album, ‘Taklamakan’, is due for release this year.

“[Splink] merged Prog with Folk and elements of jazz and classical. Fast and fiery fiddle … lines interweaved with the guitar lines over the top of a solid rhythm section. The jagged rhythms and angular lead lines ….worked well and at different points during the set Vikki Ings’ violin playing reminded slightly of Geoffrey Richardson’s playing in Caravan. Fiery folk met intricate prog, and the melding of the two worked well. A splendid set” - At the Barrier.com
