ICA Guardian Review
Just got a copy of the Guardian Review for our show at the ICA last Wednesday.
"The event starts brilliantly with viola player/composer John Metcalfe. His band is a string trio (viola, violin and double bass) plus Bays drummer Andy Gangadeen, with additional synthesised support from a laptop. They play a smartly written, sharply defined repertoire (as demonstrated by Metcalfe's album Scorching Bay), but Gangadeen's supercharged style reveals an extra dimension in Metcalfe's material; the drums sit right on top of the beat, synchronising precisely with the urgent attack of the strings."
We like it!
The whole evening came off brilliantly so massive thanks to Sarah and Ben for putting it on. For the full review go here.
