Press Release - GET THE BLESSING + CEITIDH MAC

Friday 7th February 8.00pm (doors 7.30pm) Gosforth Civic Theatre - Newcastle, £12 / £10 Concessions

GET THE BLESSING
Jim Barr (Bass Guitar) / Clive Deamer (Drums) / Jake McMurchie (Saxophone and Electronics) / Pete Judge (Trumpet and Electronics)

Formed in 1999 by bassist Jim Barr and drummer Clive Deamer (rhythm section of seminal act PORTISHEAD with Deamer also regularly playing for RADIOHEAD), the Bristol-based four-piece Get the Blessing boast a truly international fan-base, having forged a unique signature sound that defies easy classification. The Bristolian quartet channel subterranean depths and soar from dizzying heights, leading the audience through a complex labyrinth of tangled melodies and sliding soundscapes of dark, immersive production. They come to Newcastle as part of their 20th anniversary tour and in support of the album 'Bristopia'.


CEITIDH MAC
Ceitidh Mac (Voice and Cello)

Newcastle based cellist and singer-songwriter Ceitidh Mac blends soaring vocals and the deep, hypnotic sound of the cello to create a transformative sound that puts a progressive twist on the alt-folk genre.
