After playing three unforgettable shows in Bristol (with Zu, Selvhenter and Radian), Tomaga have cemented themselves as one of our favourite bands anywhere. Now finally, they're making the trip for a headline show.

To date they have released a debut cassette, three full-lenght LPs, a split with Vanishing Twin and at the start of this month, a 12" EP with remixes from Shit and Shine and Cavern of Anti-Matter. They recently collaborated with French avant-instrument builder Pierre Bastien, as well as both joining Thurston Moore as part of The Can Project at The Barbican.



"They channel various forms of multi-instrumentalism into music that moves by turns through industrial, jazz, psychedelia and minimalism, on it’s way to somewhere wholly other. Devoted to musical exploration, this London based duo obsessively deconstruct familiar tropes, looking for the tension that lies between improvisation and form."



"This is improv music that rocks, rather than swings; improv that borrows more from krautrock and psych than classical and jazz. It is (...) tight, compact and finely-tuned, with none of the flab of a jam band or musical flashery of improv jazz." - The Quietus

Charles Hayward (drummer of This Heat & Camberwell Now) leads a brand new improv quartet, alongside three of London's freshest whipper-snappers...



Ben Vince: (sax and electronics) is making waves with a series of solo releases and collaborations with Housewives and Mica Levi, threading his way through the London underground like a train.



Merlin Nova (keyboards) works in a variety of media, everything leaks into everything else, no borders, radio, film, song, movement, spoken word, drawing. As well as her solo performance she is currently gigging with This Is Not This Heat.



Pascal Colman (guitar, radio, cassette tapes) is a fucking genius, lifts heavy objects, straddles the polyverse like it was just one thing, installations, minimalist funk ago-go; a witty, charming, highly illegible bachelor.



"An array of abstract textures, car chase sequences and violent grooves. Exploratory music that cannot help but generate itself."
