Step into the sonic world of Circadia, a dream fuelled journey through the human subconscious charting a typical sleep cycle. Moving through the sleep phases, we encounter strange phenomena such as exploding head syndrome, somnambulism, and lucid dreaming, all via a genre-hopping six piece of violin, clarinet, keys, guitar, bass and drums.
David Grubb has become a sought-after musician, renowned for his ability to seamlessly blend musical styles. Backed by an equally talented full band he brings his Circadia tour to The Lost ARC on October 18th.
Primarily a violinist, David has shared the stage and studio with notable acts including Novo Amor, Jim Ghedi, Hailaker, Toby Hay, and collaborated with producers Ali Chant, Neil Davidge, and Ed Tullett. His work has taken him to North America, Europe, Asia, and New Zealand, performing in iconic venues such as The Barbican Centre (London) and Bowery Ballroom (NYC).
An instrumental story teller, David’s musical prowess goes beyond traditional boundaries, crafting compositions that weave together seemingly disparate musical elements into conceptual journeys. His original offerings challenge the conventional perceptions of genre, inviting audiences into immersive sonic landscapes where each note tells a story. David’s upcoming release Circadia explores the human subconscious, leading listeners through a typical sleep cycle and encountering weird and wonderful phenomena along the way.
True to his genre hopping credentials, David’s musical endeavours extend to diverse projects, including his membership in the Welsh trash-trad ensemble, NoGood Boyo, and his role as a founding member of the burgeoning bluegrass sensation, Taff Rapids.
