From art-rock to post-punk, free jazz sax squall to Latin percussion to military marching band tuba, Auktyon is unlike any band you’ve seen before. Difficult to describe without resorting to stacks of hyphenated phrases, the music speaks to fans of everyone from Gogol Bordello to the Boredoms, Talking Heads to Pere Ubu, Ozomatli to Mr. Bungle. Their live show is high energy, mind-blowingly fun, and the fact that you probably don’t understand Russian is beside the point. Now lead singer Leonid Fedorov presents his solo material, drawn from 17 albums recorded and released over the last 20 years. This is a unique chance to experience the lyrical side of the man behind the legendary band, in a performance that will feature new material as well as an unorthodox take on the classics.
Doors 7.30 pm; music starts at 8.15 pm
