Orange Claw Hammer

The Glad Cafe, Glasgow

£10 in advance / £12 on the door
Entry Requirements: Over 18s only

Orange Claw Hammer takes the music of Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band and bends it into shape for the 21st century. Founded in 2011 by musician and composer Steve Kettley (Pygmy Twylyte, Cauld Blast Orchestra, Gnawa Trance Fusion), the band's sax-driven, mostly instrumental, re-workings of Don Van Vliet's back catalogue highlight the blues, jazz and experimental roots of this music. Miles away from being a tribute act, Orange Claw Hammer take classics of avant rock from the 60s through to the 80s as vehicles for improvisation and reinvention for contemporary sensibilities - and Beefheart fanatics!
