Description
What Wooden Elephant makes from the songs of Björk’s epic album »Homogenic« is great art. Cracking beats, overmodulated electric guitar, ethereal synthesiser sounds, breathy voice – they get all this from their instruments with wacky playing techniques.
After the concert we are organising a Traditional Irish Folk Session at Cafe Blau – come along for a beer and listen to Irish folk music!
20:00, Cafe Blau, Franzsikanerstr. 9 53113 Bonn
