Neon artists bring unique Swedish music collaboration event to Wakefield

The live performance will feature the UK debut of rising stars, the Swedish progressive avant-garde band, Weils

Masterchef finalist, Chris Hale, will also unveil his delicious interpretation of Sweden’s street food.

With sharp technical ability honed across their shared passion for neon art practices and having both graduated from Edinburgh College of Art (ECA), albeit a decade apart, Richard and April naturally gravitated towards working together, culminating in this first must-see joint conceptual exploration of memory.

Family photos documenting elaborate firework displays from 1950’s Hong Kong, as well as subconscious reflections of Yorkshire’s coal fired past, will inform these highly anticipated visuals to music.

The show with be infused with the dreamlike melodic nuances of Weils, a band formed in Sweden by musical maestros, Jonas Teglund and Isak Sundstrom, who have a penchant for making contemporary electronic instrumental blues, with a shades of Brian Eno vibe.

Weils, who take their name from French philosopher and mystic, Simone Weils, couldn’t resist the pull of this fascinating staging.

Tickets are for sale now at £20 per person, with them available from Resident Advisor and Jumbo Records.
