HANDLE (UK, Absolute Fiction/Upset! The Rhythm) + KANIPCHEN-FIT + DJ STEVE

HANDLE (UK, Absolute Fiction/Upset! The Rhythm)
HANDLE incorporate a diverse range of influences, from samba to no wave. Handle, a three-piece from Manchester (now based between Manchester/London/Brussels) make a uniquely minimal sound, buoyed by poetic, urgent vocals. Each instrument (bass, drums, keyboard and voice) is permitted its own space, yet somehow the result is a brilliantly unified yet understated sonic experience that demands then commands your attention.

Handle is made up of Giulio Erasmus and Nirvana Heire (former members of D.U.D.S) and Leo Hermitt, a genderqueer multidisciplinary artist, renowned for their challenging, thought-provoking work on the city’s arts and literary scenes. The group mesh politics with a trans experience of time and a vibrant, avant-garde freedom of approach.
