REVIEW: Clean Bandit in Birmingham

On the 5th May I went to see Clean Bandit at the HMV Institute in Birmingham, something which I'd received tickets for from my friend Mimi for my birthday.


 

Their music has been described by critics as 'fusion music'. They have created a new variety mixing deep-house elements with classical and electronic music. Unlike most bands they invite guest artists to sing their songs and produce the music themselves

Members: Jack Patterson (bass guitar, keyboard), Luke Patterson (drums), Grace Chatto (cello) and Milan Neil Amin-Smith (violin)

I was not sure what to expect as I have been listening to and supporting them for the past couple of years and was not sure how they would sound when performing live. It was completely different to all other gigs I have ever been to with a mixture of house and live violin and cello playing. They completely surpassed my expectations and I would really recommend anybody who gets the opportunity to go and see them live.
