Those incredible ‘loopers’ Funke and the Two Tone Baby and Samantics arrive in Aldershot for a double headline show. Each has their own unique sound and style: Samantics with his more laid back, hip hop-esq/spoken word style and Funke with a blues meets techno sound.
Funke and the Two Tone Baby is a one-man phenomenon that mixes folky singalong anthems with blistering blues riffs, juxtaposed with fat bass, big beats and sub kicks. A frenzied amalgamation of organic and electronic that defies all preconception.
Born from festivals and knocking on the door of one thousand shows, F&TTTB has wowed audiences from Glastonbury to Sziget, WOMAD to Boomtown and Alexandra Palace to a Bahraini Princes’ private studio.
"Samantics is a livewire rap-poet and musician whose lyrical maps are a personal stroll around his vision of England and his own life. Taking us on a multitudinous odyssey of instrumentation - ukulele, piano, beats, bass, electronics and more - all created and controlled via a loop station and sampler. His live shows are a frantic, funny, and thrilling experience. Skirting the line between slam poet, social commentator and street busker, Samantics is an unmissable solo artist bound to spike your energy levels
