ABSTRACT CONCRETE
Charles Hayward's music is unique, innovative and ultra charismatic. A true titan of English underground music. Culturally rich and a big influence to many. Honestly can't think of anything comparable. It means a lot to have his next project play in Notts. Difficult to describe so I'm just going to say this is unmissable and use the quotes of others that nail it in a lighter way.
'Abstract Concrete is another big step for UK underground heavyweight Charles Hayward (This Heat, Camberwell Now), joined by some of the most exciting and forward-thinking young London players from a diversity of European underground and experimental scenes: Agathe Max, Roberto Sassi, Yoni Silver & Otto Willberg.'
'Combining sweet chamber pop hooks with dubwise bass, plaintive Balearic guitar licks, and a blend of folk and jazz-informed post punk, accompanied by lyrics that bend from the political to depressed toilet cleaning apparatus, Abstract Concrete follows a continuum of such melodic art school innovators as The Kinks, Brian Eno, Robert Wyatt and Penguin Cafe Orchestra, as well as Hayward’s own experimental post punk past, all the while nodding to a childhood spent listening to folk and pop''
