Concrete Moniker supergroup tour

Anton and Ben have just returned from a couple of gigs as part of a free improv ‘supergroup’ – bringing together Concrete Moniker‘s findlay_hunter_rennie and cottrell/findlay/hunter. Also playing at the gigs were  Moniker’s newest project, The Electronic Exchange, to perform live for the first time music that had been conceived electronically thousands of miles apart by Tullis Rennie in Barcelona and Najia Bagi in Manchester. Check out their new EP, its ace… All photos below were taken by Phil Richards at the Wirksworth Festival.
