Live at The Bell
A couple of little clips handheld on a Canon 5D Mk11 at The Bell in Bath. They saw nothing but room for improvement in their performance and I'm pretty sure the cameraman had a beer in his hand, but it's still mesmerizing.
"When I first listened to the music of Spiro I thought it was really different. I mean the sounds that you're first hit with are sounds that you're familiar with, they sound folky. But once you start listening to the music and how it's composed you hear elements of systems music, people like Steve Reich, Phillip Glass, dance music and all sorts of musical influences are woven into this very contemporary music.
I think this is soulful music, passionate music, and I love it and I hope you do." - Peter Gabriel
Spiro are four musicians from the South West with a contemporary English acoustic sound. They are Jon Hunt on guitar, Jason Sparkes on accordion, Alex Vann on mandolin and Jane Harbour on violin.
