Robocobra Quartet

Young, talented artists from Northern Ireland, Finland and Austria present chamber jazz, surf rock, post-punk, meditative sounds and uncompromising drum beats, during the second day of 12 Points. Before that: Sanem Kalfa & George Dumitriu during ORANGE LINE.

Robocobra Quartet
Belfast, Northern Ireland
Drawing influence from post-punk and jazz improv, this quartet intentionally crosses genre lines to create music that is as unclassifiable as it is artistically uncompromising. Propelled from the drum throne of drummer-vocalist Chris Ryan, gritty and witty incantations, accompanied by swirling reeds, electronics and bass, defiantly rages against the machine.

Chris Ryan drums/voice, Tom Tabori soprano sax, Peter Howard tenor sax, Nathan Rodgers bass guitar
