Nils Bech @ The Great Escape Festival, Brighton.

Nils Bech Plays Norwegian Night at The Great Escape Festival.

On Norway Day, following on from last year’s successful Icelandic music showcase, Melting Vinyl and The Great Escape bring you the finest of the Norwegian scene.

Sat. 17th May 11pm-1.30am LATE SHOW

ANN BRUN + NILS BECH + SILJE NES

Duke of Yorks Picturehouse, Preston Circus, Brighton

Tickets: Free for TGE wristband holders. Limited number of £5 tickets. Available from Duke of York’s Box Office: 0871 704 2056 / Rounder Records: 01273 325440 / Resident: 01273 606312

Headlining will be Ann Brun. Produced by Valgeir Sigurdsson (Björk, Sigur Ros, Múm, Bonnie Prince Billy, Coco Rosie, Maps) her songs are surprising, at times strange, and they strike a nerve somewhere between bird-flight beauty and brooding melancholy with a haunting quality embedded in her melodies. Then Nils Bech. Bech is an integral part of the Norwegian art and music scene. Accompanied by a saxophonist he combines sparse acapella versions of contemporary and classical music with well-crafted electronica in a conceptual stage show laced with cabaret and contemporary dance. And last up Silje Nes. Newly signed to Fatcat Records, Silje delicately layers up twinkling melodies and ghostly electronics alongside her celestial other worldly vocals.

Jacob’s Stories Review By Rockmidgets.com

Releases

Jacob’s Stories – Undisciplined Art

Despite falling under many radars, Jacob’s Stories debut full-length Fledging swiftly became a firm favourties at Midget Towers upon its release back in 2006. Managing to unite a whole array of writers and photographers with highly dispirate tastes, it was a remarkale album that signaled the arrival of one of the UK’s best kept secrets. Limited to a mere 500 copies, each lovingly crafted with individual artwork by mastermind Stuart Lee, sophomore long-player Undisciplined Art deserves to propel its creator to stardom. Armed with a voice that could thaw even the sternest of hearts from a thousand paces, it’s Lee’s fragile falsetto that frequently helps elevate Undisciplined Art into uncharted territory. The slowburning slumber of ‘£50 Guarantee’ opens proceedings in a typically unorthodox manner, with a gentle piano complimenting Lee’s delicate tones, while the string soaked ‘The Christian And The Queer’ is the nearest to radio-friendly as the Brighton-based troubadour gets, a beguilingly gorgeous offering that could well be the best thing he’s penned to date.

A British indie needs to snap up Jacob’s Stories and give Undisciplined Art the full release its unerring quality warrants, as if this album was put out by more of a household name it would have already have been widely lauded as one of 2008’s very finest releases.

Further exciting news is the inclusion of Nils Bech to the Norwegian Showcase at The Great Escape Festival.

From May 15th to 17th The Great Escape festival takes over 25 local venues in Brighton showcasing over 200+ exciting new bands. A strong focus towards breaking International acts in the UK means that The Great Escape put a new country under the spotlight every year, and this year Norway gets our full attention. One band that is a must see is Nils Bech. Combining sparse acapella versions of contemporary and classical music and well-crafted electronica in a conceptual stage show laced with cabaret and contemporary dance, Nils Bech creates a sound that sits neatly between Antony of Antony and the Johnsons fame and an early 80s synth compilation.
Nils Bech play the late night Norwegian showcase, Saturday 17th May at the Duke of Yorks Picture House, Brighton with Ane Brun and The Lionhearts Brothers.
Doors: 11pm -2am

Tickets: 3 day passes £49.50/Saturday pass £24.50/£5 for showcase only.

In association with Melting Vinyl Promotions.
