Desert, delta, steppe and underground – a mixture growing out of London punk and underground as well as American and desert blues.

Guitarists of Robert Plant’s band and John Lydon‘s PiL on the same stage. An extraordinary fusion of three iconic figures who have been on the British scene for over forty years. Given the busy schedules of Les Triaboliques members, their concerts are a great rarity. The band consists of Ben Mandelson, who formed one of the first world music bands 3 Mustaphas 3 in the 1980s, as well as punk veteran Lu Edmonds of Public Image Ltd and Mekons, and Robert Plant's bandmate Justin Adams.

Ben Mandelson is a mandolin virtuoso, musical adventurer and producer and founder of the Womex Festival. Together with Edmonds and Adams, they create genre-spanning music rooted in blues and punk, spiced with non-European instruments such as the saz lute and Turkish banjo cümbüş. Justin Adams adds authentic desert blues to the mix, which he picked up as producer of the African band Tinariwen or as a bandmate of Juldeh Camara. The band members themselves call their work dusk-core: a blend of London punk and underground together with American and desert blues.

‘A pleasantly desolate supergroup,’ says The Guardian. Desert, delta, steppe and underground – thus the band members define their style.

Event is promoted by Rachot Production.
