Love Difference Festival
FREE Festival featuring PPE and Bristol jazz band THE BLESSING
As part of the European Year of Intercultural Dialogue, there will be a daylong celebration of Bristol’s diversity, in particular Eastern and Central European cultures, on Sunday 28th September. Free events throughout the day include political, cultural and artistic discussions all afternoon at the City Council House.
This will be followed by a FREE concert at Trinity Centre.
Slovakian band PPE (Puding Pani Elvisovej) play a dizzying mix of indiepowerpop, dancing dangerously on the edge of electroclash with their noisy punk attitude. Their two albums and handful of Slovak hits don’t tell the full story: this band loves to play live!
The concert will also feature Bristolbased postjazz rockers The Blessing, who recently won a BBC Jazz award for their debut album All is Yes.
Their sound combines fiendish trumpet and sax improvisation by Pete Judge and Jake McMurchie with triphop and rock rhythms from the former rhythm section of Portishead, Clive Deamer (drums) and Jim Barr.
