Prepare to be charmed, spooked and confused: Triops are coming back to b-side with brand new work filmed in 360° and this time in the incredible ICCI360 Dome!
During the performance you will hear songs performed live by Triops (Mr Thomas Hughes, Princess Lucy Watkins and Emperor Rick Veall), telling odd tales of intriguing characters and unrequited love, rich in vocal harmonies and beautiful vintage sounds – hammond organ, dusty old pianos, reed organs, theremin, accordion, drums, percussion and a concoction of strange effects.
Projected panoramically onto the surface of the dome as the band play, Triops’ tailor-made films and handpainted animations, pull the audience further into their enchanted, strange, beautiful, spooky and often humorous dreamworld where the atmosphere flutters schizophrenically between the most gorgeous magical loveliness and the most disturbingly twisted nastiness, often without rhyme nor reason. Between songs strange things may happen: perhaps some telepathy, a hypnotism, maybe a murder…
Some of it funny, some of it sad, some of it disturbing, and some of it just plain weird… like a cheese induced dream, yet with neither cheese nor sleep…
