After successful UK and European tours in 2023-24, Kulku take their unique live show back on the road, returning to the UK via the legendary Les Ateliers Claus in Brussels before a stop at Cafe Oto in London, alongside this show at Common Ground, Oxford. They will perform music from their latest album Reset To Be, released on Phase Group last year.Formed in Berlin at the turn of the millennium, Kulku have evolved as a highly unique and free-formed collective of musicians that make trance-inducing, jazz-entwined, percussive and soulful (mostly) acoustic music that takes cues from the rhythmic propulsion of Jaki Liebezeit’s Can, the street-folk of Moondog, the minimalism of Steve Reich, and the droning rock n’ roll of the Velvet Underground, forming a sound that they themselves have coined ‘No-Age’.
Expect a showcase of the unique identity the band have been developing for more than two decades; a sound crafted through experimentation and innovation with primarily acoustic instruments; droning harmoniums, repetitive and phasing xylophones, timpani, cello, scrap metal and woodwind reeds, all sitting alongside soulful saxophones and the voice of frontman Andreas Riska, singing in both German and English.
A phenomenal live group - this will be a memorable one!
