Holy Fuck + Gus Englehorn

THIS SHOW IS SOLD OUT

Doors 7 / Music 8

Canadian quartet Holy Fuck have always been happy to plow a distinctly lone furrow. Never ones to chase the limelight or hop on any genre-wagon that happens to be passing by, they’ve played by their own rules for the best part of 20 years and five albums. It’s for that reason that they’ve become one of the country’s finest and most influential exports, with their widescreen technicolour, crescendo-heavy and highly danceable sound often finding itself imitated, but never bettered.

Even after attracting mainstream attention thanks to appearing on the soundtracks to Breaking Bad, The Substance, Mr Robot, Chemical Hearts, Good Girls, Cheaters and Invincible (the latter producing viral hit ‘Tom Tom’), the band has continued to go against the grain in a cultural landscape that prioritises and lionises the safe and predictable over the marginal and single-minded.
