New name, new ways
Newly signed to Ninja Tune, Portico’s new music is born of a desire to create newness out of the ideas of loss and change. Bordering on the hallucinatory, their music moves forwards towards distant places, arriving somewhere between structured pop songs and a disintegrating ambience.
Featuring founder members Duncan Bellamy, Milo Fitzpatrick and Jack Wyllie, Portico is a diffuse blend of the sublunary and the celestial. Guest vocalist Jono McCleery’s vocals float high above a world of textural atmosphere.
Living Fields
Portico’s new album, Living Fields, will be released on Ninja Tune in March 2015 and tonight’s show offers a unique chance to hear the band’s new music in a live setting.
