HENGE

CALLING ALL MEMBERS OF THE HUMAN RACE, AN INTERGALACTIC EXPERIENCE IS HEADING TO YOUR PLANET

Attention Humans! This is HENGE.
We are not from this world.
We bring you music from distant planets.
We offer this gift for the edification of humankind… so that eventually your species may put an end to war and set up new homes in space.

Extra-terrestrial joymongers - HENGE - have been delighting audiences in the UK and Europe since they landed on Planet Earth eight years ago. Their scintillating live performances earned them ‘Best Live Act’ at the Independent Festival Awards and they have since cemented their reputation with three acclaimed albums, numerous tours and regular main-stage festival appearances.

Their music escapes definition, but occupies a space between rave and prog rock that nobody knew existed. It is energetic, subversive and invigoratingly playful, jovially going ‘where no one has gone before’. Ultimately, HENGE are spreading a message of hope which leaves audiences feeling amused and uplifted in equal measures.

WITH SUPPORT FROM DOGSHOW!

DOGSHOW

Dogshow are co-founders of Liverpool’s Kazimier Club and Invisible Wind Factory venues, with many years making their own parties. The two brothers traverse the genre-fluid astral planes creating music for dancing and raving. On a voyage to explore how music can be experienced differently, their search has seen them performing in flying pods, tricycles, to submarines and now find themselves transformed into full-bodied Canines. This year Dogshow are conducting a ritualistic ‘howling at the moon’ ceremony, channeling our raw animalistic energy in the middle of the audience. Join the spectacle and unleash your inner beast.
