Southbank Centre’s Queen Elizabeth Hall, London, London and South East SE1 8XX
Cost: £17.50, £15
J Spaceman (Spiritualized) and Matthew Shipp return to Southbank Centre with a project first created for Patti Smith’s Meltdown festival in June 2005.
Featuring Shipp on celeste and harmonium and J Spaceman’s drone guitar, reminiscent of the most visceral elements of Spiritualized and Spacemen 3, this is a rare opportunity to see this extraordinary collaboration.
Also performing is Hauschka, the alias of German pianist and composer Volker Bertelmann, who is joined in this special gig by a string quartet and whose latest album, Ferndorf, was released in September.
