Gigonometry Presents...Mystic Tears, Grouse, Order of the Mess, Aobhinn
Details
Our last gig of 2017 and what a cracker it is!! Whatever your taste, favourite genre, mood or whatever, like a Gelato outlet we've got it covered. For the exotic tastes we've got the ephemeral Mystic Tears with their beautiful, expansive and cinematic songs. For the more electronically inclined with buckets of ambience (think hazelnut and translucent strawberry) we've got the return of one of our fave ambient electronic acts Grouse. You want something with a bit more bite, something to chew whilst the gelato slides down your gullet, well Cork-based Italian duo Order of the Mess will do exactly that, and for your appetizer we've got the remarkable NIMF herself, accompanied by who knows on the night!
As always admission is a mere €6 when you RSVP here!

On record, Grouse tends to be cinematic and trippy, downtempo in nature, but live, Grouse is a different beast with improvised guitar, heavy percussion, live drums, jazzy vocals and brass, all the while keeping the electronic edge that characterises the Grouse sound.
At home on the stages of the Irish summer festivals, (appearances include Electric Picnic, Castlepalooza, Sunflower Fest, Vantastival), as well as the dirty rock clubs of the city, the Grouse live band tends to create an fairly epic sound.
The band consists of Ronan Carroll on guitar and synths and a cosmopolitan mix of members from all corners of the world.
Most recent album, 'Oslo', was ‘Album of the Week' for Nialler9 and Dan Hegarty and received props from trip-hop legend Kid Loco, Jon Kennedy and Ben Mono amongst others. After taking a break over the last few months to work on new music, the Grouse live band is back with a new set for gigs happening late 2017.

NIMF
A piece of software found beneath an uncanny willow tree. NIMFWARE; a story of NIMF.
Aoibhín: Synth, vocals. The Nimf herself, she is studying songwriting in BIMM and running a radio show on Raidio Na Life, she's known for her cartoon character likeness and experimental unorthodox songs and performances. Often her ensemble is correlated with a wacky retro whippersnapper, puzzling and perplexing her cronies.
Oisín: Bass. Known as a mathematical poindexter in which he can calculate the most impeccable riffs and hooks befitting to the number, and we all know he specialises in numbers. Often embarrasses his comrades with his dangling dance moves, woven in with his mad prof shirt and suspenders.
NIMF are winners of Pure M Best Newcomer. Their most recent release, My Choice, premiered on Niallar9 and Gigslutz UK, adding up to over 10,000 views. Since, they've been lining up gigs in the likes of the Grand Social, the Button Factory, and the Purty Kitchen opening for KÍLA and Molly Sterling.
