Archipelago

• Events Home

The critically acclaimed three piece band Archipelago play the Ilkley Moor Vaults on the 16th November.
‘Very original, evocative, and at times haunting’ - Kevin Le Gendre, BBC Radio 3

Archipelago are a genre-defying trio, formed out of the North East of England’s creative musical underground. Fronted by multi-instrumentalist and composer Faye MacCalman, and completed by John Pope (bass) and Christian Anderson ( drums) their sound is a dreamlike collision of otherworldly atmospheres, heartfelt song-writing and energetic off-kilter rhythms.

Moving between instruments and effects to create the illusion of a much larger ensemble, before peeling back to their raw, improvisational trio form, Archipelago’s uncompromising refusal to fit in one genre makes for a fully-charged musical experience.

With influences stretching from Joni Mitchell to Don Cherry to Esperanza Spalding, Archipelago draw on a deep pool of sonic references and the diversity of their individual musical histories.
