Anna Meredith: International Showcase Fund (Eurosonic 2017)
After building an established career in the classical world and two critically acclaimed EPs, composer Anna Meredith released her much anticipated album, Varmints on Moshi Moshi Records in March 2016. There’s been an incredible critical response with 4 and 5 star reviews across the board from the likes of The Wire, Sunday Times, Uncut, Q Magazine, Best Fit, DIY, and the coveted Best New Music [8.4] on Pitchfork.
To capture Anna’s punchy maximalist sound she performs with her band of classical musicians and a line up of electronics, clarinet, cello, tuba, guitar and drums. With her live show gaining rave reviews including 5 stars – “a triumph“- from the Guardian and a summer of touring and festivals ahead, there’s never been a better time to catch this unique artist.
