  • Gilank is a duo of Bradford-based experimental electro-acoustic musicians, Alice Gilmour and shi Blank.

    They work with an array of loopers, pedals, synths, MIDI controllers, and acoustic instruments.

    One person starts, often with a shared thought in mind, the other adds a layer, and so on.

    Each responds to the other's input in real-time, their interactions shaping the evolving composition.

We can finally reveal the secret location of the next performance -
Ever wanted to watch the sun set from a cemetery whilst immersed in an ever changing soundscape on all sides?
We are delighted to be closing day one of The Progress playing in the Undercliffe Cemetery with the brilliant santoor player, Eeshar Singh.
From 8 to 10pm, our live improvisation will be relayed through lots of speakers around the location and stay on loop playing overnight! Come and experience it. We'd love to see you there.
