Returning to Lincoln after a decade, Nordic Giants are set to bring their amazing show to The Drill in March.Performance is the thing, and as those who have seen the Nordic Giants live show will attest, it is a visceral experience that goes beyond the normal descriptors.
Each mind-blowing performance involves a chosen few short films, which are soundtracked live with atmospheric soundscapes. Two mythical creatures create an experience with bowed guitar, piano that is both haunting and rousing, and climactic and thunderous drums.
Nordic Giants have spent the last few years bringing their own formula of claustrophobic cinema clatter to a selection of unusual locations across the country; from disused Victorian music halls to converted seaside bandstands. Dressed in feathers and shrouded in a ubiquitous fog the pair look more like residents of Middle Earth.
The award-winning short films that accompany the live performance are each one a work of art; by turn poignant and powerful, dark and uplifting. Whether live action or animation, experimental or narrative, each resonates and will stay with you in its own way.
Seeing Nordic Giants has been described as akin to a religious experience: the multi-screen visuals, powerful strobes and exquisitely timed accompaniment create a whole that is far greater than the sum of its parts.
“Exciting, passionate and well-crafted, the Nordic Giants’ show is a tour de force.” – William Goodchild, BBC Film Composer
“Truly inspirational, a must see for all music lovers and film buffs.” – Bram Ttwheam – Aardman Animations
