Press Release

Gigonometry goes all Halloweeny for our October showcase, featuring the darkest, most horrorville acts we could find. Glued together by the vile vaudevillian Venus de Vilo, the acts will all perform their darkest material by the light of a silvery moon.

Headliner Roisin El Cherif clears the cobwebs from the night with her classical backing musicians, taking the blood stained baton from horror 2-piece Midnight Chimes. Robert Delaney resurrects souls for his soul-soaked performance, whilst Jack Spoke kicks off the night with his unique voice reaching to the depths of dark despair. Halloween fancy dress is optional but encouraged, and a make-up artist will be available to get you into the spirit, if required.

Midnight Chimes

Midnight Chimes is a Dublin-based horror themed band, who released their 1st EP “Halloween Moon” in September 2016. They featured on several shows on the 2XM, and have also been aired on 8Radio with the first track from their EP “Witches Disco” (featuring a guest appearance from recent Gigo artist, the sublime Saramai).

Their music is a spooky fusion of electronica and rock, featuring a thick tapestry of pre-programmed electronic midi beats, and the live show is a duo act of electric guitar, midi keyboards and vocals occasionally layered with monstrous sound effects.

Midnight Chimes are currently recording their 2nd EP which will be released in February 2018.
