A proud announcement...
Gina Birch and Ana da Silva, as founders of the Raincoats, have been pioneers of underground music and culture in the UK since the late 70s. Their experiments with rhythm and space in music, their fragile melodies, and lyrics which blended the poetic and the everyday, have inspired every left-field band from Massive Attack to Nirvana. They mapped out a path particularly for female musicians outside the mainstream.
On January 15th, at the Spitz, Gina Birch presents her acclaimed solo set, as seen at Ladyfest London. Gina is also a film and video director, and her films will show throughout the set. Ana da Silva provides the main support with a rare performance of her own sparse and touching solo material, accompanied by drum machine. Linus open the show, with a short set of new songs in their customary arty/spiky style.
The Spitz is at the Old Spitalfields Market, 109 Commercial Street, London E1 - nearest tubes Liverpool Street or Shoreditch. The show runs from 8pm-11, and entrance is £6.
