Alexis Taylor + Green Gartside

Alexis Taylor (Hot Chip) Green Gartside (Scritti Politti)

7.30pm, Sunday 10th December at Bedford Esquires

A coup for us here at Bedford Esquires, with two Pad Presents favourites coming to Bedford for a very special performance together.

Expect a real sense of occasion as two extraordinary voices from the realm of UK music royalty are brought together for this rare live outing.

Green Gartside’s band, Scritti Politti, combined punk’s raw energy with gritty experimental sounds and strident melodic pop.

Alexis Taylor fronts acclaimed synth-pop outfit, Hot Chip. His solo work consists of stripped-back, deeply personal piano-driven melancholia.  One of merely a handful of performances, this double bill features top-drawer musicianship, exquisite vocals and genuine warmth between the artists.
