LONDON eccentrics The Correspondents are bringing their quirky sound to The Winchester tomorrow night.

The band have made quite a name for themselves at the forefront of the electro-swing scene.

In fact, there seems to be very few like them.

The Correspondents consist of Mr Bruce and Mr Chuckles, who collaborate to revamp vintage sounds for the modern ear.

Using obscure samples and dusty drum loops they’ve created a foot-tapping amalgamation of electro, drum ’n’ bass, swing and boogie-woogie. Starting out in November 2007, the two old friends returned to London after a spell at their respective universities. In Leeds, Mr Chuckles had been tinkering with the sounds of hip hop, jazz and dance music.

Meanwhile, in Edinburgh, Mr Bruce exerted his vocal dexterity over drum ’n’ bass, breaks and funk.

The unlikely pair cut their teeth at a few parties and decided to cement the live performance relationship in their makeshift recording studio.

Tracks have been recorded and in the last couple of years, the duo has been performing an ever-growing list of festivals and shows whilst constantly fine-tuning their sound.

Support tomorrow night comes from a trio of acts, including The Tortugas a five-piece from Brighton via Northampton and Switzerland. The band make an interesting blend of rootsy folk rock and psychedelia. Also on the bill are The Orironauts who play an instrumental mixture of funk, jazz, drum’n’bass, and alternative rock and indie duo Adam and Elvis.

There is also a wealth of DJ talent on show, headed up by the Dolly Rockers Club. It should be an interesting, if bizarre, night for music lovers.
