Split Works开功呈现: SUUNS

  

“每一个音符、每一处律动、每一句歌词都卓越不凡。” –NPR

 “充满迷幻爵士怪诞感的电子厄运摇滚重器” – NME

“我们最爱的现场乐队之一” – VICE Noisey

Suuns是一支充满神秘气息的乐队，危险而诱人——像初恋，如香烟。

他们用音乐呈现异样的美丽。对立与不和谐意象在作品中有机生长的同时，也会在你心中埋下冲突的种子。唯有细细品味，你才能发现他们刻意编排的秘密——在浩瀚的空间中，宁静带来一种节制的美感；迷幻的氛围在电子音效的催化下，散发着冰冷的感官刺激。

Suuns总能将预制编程好的电子乐与现场演奏的器乐部分完美融合在一起。他们招牌式的暗黑电子摇滚惆怅又令人沉醉，在现场演出时如宝石一般熠熠生辉。能请到来中国进行一系列live house演出，我们的兴奋之情难以言表。Suuns，如同名字中昭示的，定会在黑夜中崩裂出最耀眼的光芒。

三城巡演——6月21日，周四，深圳@B10；6月22日，周五，上海@育音堂；6月23日，周六，北京@乐空间。预售票价147元，现场还会有其他优秀嘉宾助阵表演。

这个四人组的生涯故事始于加拿大蒙特利尔。2007年，主唱、吉他手Ben Shemie与吉他手Joe Yarmush先是凑在一起录制一些小样；很快Ben学生时期的老友Liam便加入进来，负责打鼓；而键盘手Max Henry的出现则补全了整块拼图。乐队于2010首次发行的专辑《Zeroes QC》与2012年获得Polaris音乐奖提名的专辑《Images Du Futur》很快就为他们收获了媒体的赞誉，使他们一举跻身于The Besnard Lakes、 Islands与Land of Talk等蒙特利尔2000年后音乐复兴潮流的领军乐队之列。

2015年，Suuns与氛围音乐项目“Jerusalem in My Heart”合作发行了一张专辑。而伴随着这部作品的发表，乐队踏上了一次漫长的全球巡演。在这一期间，他们的现场表演日臻完善；无论在视觉上，还是听觉上都逐渐进化到一种令人叹为观止的艺术体验——它既是一场现场演出、又像是艺术装置展览、同时还让人仿佛置身地下俱乐部派对——它是一种全方位的观感。也因此，Suuns，作为“最佳现场乐队之一”，声名鹊起。而其与Wilco、Julia Holter、Savages及其他众多知名乐队的共演均饱受称赞。

Suuns在刚刚过去的2018年3月发表了新作《Felt》，而这部作品见证了他们与早先暗黑气质的挥别。“有趣、迷幻、松弛、凝练、斑斓”，这些词语可以较为准确地描绘《Felt》呈现出的感觉。在这个洋溢着乐观气息的世界中，Suuns的奇思妙想如云朵缝隙间时隐时现的光芒般耀眼，总在不可预知的瞬间倾泻而出。2018年6月，京沪深三地观众将迎来他们比以往都更为精炼的现场——这将是不可错过的体验。

* Suuns是慈善公益组织PLUSONE的合作伙伴。每一张门票中的7元都将用于“中国乡村女学生教育资助支持计划（EGRC – Educating Girls of Rural China）”。该项目目前正在帮助甘肃、贵州、青海等中国西部乡村地区的女学生，以使她们获得接受中等教育及大专教育的机会。详情可前往 http://www.egrc.ca 进行查看。

Split Works presents:
SUUNS

“Every note, rhythm and lyric has a transcendent quality.” –NPR

 “An electrodoomrock weapon of psych-jazz eeriness.” – NME

Suuns are an enigmatic band. Dangerous and compelling, like first love or a contraband cigarette.

They make eerily beautiful, meticulously played music that embraces opposites and makes a virtue of cognitive dissonance. Their songs hold secrets that are revealed only on close listening. Their music finds space and silence sitting algside. It’s organic electronic. Psychedelic austerity. Cold sensuality. A sacred drift.

Suuns have always seamlessly blended the programmed and played. Their brand of dark, melancholy electro-rock is bewitching, and radiant in live settings. We’re hugely excited to bring them over for a series of livehouse shows. Suuns, after all, burn brightest at night.

Three city tour. Shenzhen: Thursday June 21 at B10. Shanghai: Friday June 22 at Yuyintang. Beijing: Saturday June 23 at Yue Space.147 RMB presale, with a killer lineup of support acts.

They formed in Montreal 2007, when singer/guitarist Ben Shemie and guitarist Joe Yarmush got together to work on some demos, soon to be joined by Liam, Ben’s old schoolfriend, on drums and Max Henry on synth. Their group’s first two records, 2010’s Zeroes QC and 2012’s Polaris Prize-nominated Images Du Futurwere immediate critical hits, and Suuns soon found themselves part of a late ‘00s musical renaissance in the city, alongside fellow groups like The Besnard Lakes, Islands and Land Of Talk.

In 2015, they released a collaborative album with the fluid and trippy ambient music project ‘Jerusalem in my Heart’. The release coincided with a long string of global tour dates, sending Suuns on the road for an extended period. The live show, built and refined during this time, is truly both a sight and sound to behold - part live show, part installation, part club - it is an all-round sensory experience. They’ve built a fierce reputation as one of the best live bands out there, playing well-regarded gigs alongside Wilco, Julia Holter and Savages, among others.

In March 2018, Suuns released Felt, which breaks with Suuns’ earlier darkness for a more optimistic ambience. It’s playful, trippy, loose, laconic and colourful, with a leaner, meaner live show to match. As unpredictable as suunlight breaking through the clouds. Don’t miss them on their China debut. Three cities. June 2018.

* Suuns is a partner of the charity network PLUSONE. 7 RMB from each ticket sale go to supporting Educating Girls of Rural China (EGRC) and their work sponsoring women from rural areas in Gansu, Guizhou and Qinghai provinces through their secondary and post-secondary education. Learn more about them at http://www.egrc.ca
