Submotion Orchestra

Submotion Orchestra have rapidly built up a reputation as one of the most interesting and original projects emerging from the UK today. Drawing upon dubstep, soul, ambient electronica, jazz and dub, their unique music is at once delicate and heavy, spacious and dense, highly atmospheric but firmly rooted. Earth shaking bass and drums combine with lush keyboard and trumpet textures to create the perfect bed for the fragile beauty of Ruby Wood’s vocals, and the celestial effects of sound designer Ruckspin.

Last year the band released their debut album ‘Finest Hour’, plus singles ‘All Yours’ and ‘Always’. They were met with widespread critical acclaim, plus heavy Radio 1, 6music, 1xtra and NME Radio support. By the time they hit Kelburn, they will be well on the way to global stardom.
