SEA POWER and Pictish Trail

Sea Power brings experimental rock music fused with cinematic soundscapes. An intoxicating atmosphere evoking the sublime wilderness in musical form, upon a stage decked out with foliage and shrouded in fog. Guitar monoliths tower, cornet and viola trace constellations above a world both beautiful and on the brink. Foliage, fog, and glowing atmospheres create panoramic, immersive experiences where the post-industrial and the primeval collide. Time Out named them Live Band of the Year, a reputation reinforced by tours with The Flaming Lips, Interpol, Pulp, The Killers, and Manic Street Preachers.

From CERN’s particle tunnels to Beijing’s clubs, from New York’s Bowery Ballroom to the dinosaur halls of the British Museum, Sea Power explores the alternative edges of rock music and reimagine it as the sound of ecological mythology, a soundtrack for the Anthropocene.

Sea Powers members are Jan Wilkinson, Neil Wilkinson, Martin Noble, Abu Fry, and Phil Sumner.

“Sea Power belongs to a parallel present tense, running alongside our mundane reality, which doesn’t seem to have a chronological start or end point. They are that vital thing: a band who, had they not existed, no one else would have thought to invent them.” The Quietus
