The Wonderful Sound of the Cinema Organ are a Leeds based
9 piece ensemble comprising Drums, Bass, Guitar, Piano, Cello, Violin,
Saxophone, Trumpet and Vocals. Working with both music and film visuals the
band layer up richly textured harmonies and hypnotic rhythms, all set to
archive footage, collected and edited to reflect each piece.
Over the past 18 months the band have had airplay on BBC
Radio 6 Music and have enjoyed playing at festivals such as Musicport,
Shambala, Beatherder and Beacons, several venues in Leeds, London, Nottingham
and Bristol and a really special show at Islington's esteemed Union Chapel
not to mention the Natural History Museum!
"The texture of The Wonderful Sound Of The Cinema
Organ is both fresh and alive and for sixty minutes a magical spell is woven
across this intimate room. With the fluidity of their arrangements drawing
upon the more traditional aspects of manouche jazz, Afro-American gospel and
southern soul, they also manage to harness these influences to the beat of an
altogether more different, more modern drum" - (god is in the tv).
