Delphic Coming Downunder This March
Just as the Modular Xmas Party signalled the start of the silly season, come the end of March on the tail end of summer Modular will be throwing another outrageous do to signal the end. A showcase of new talent headlined by Delphic will be blowing up the spot in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne to see off the sun.
Torchbearers of the new Madchester, Delphic are heading down here for the very first time for this whistlestop tour. Bringing with them their reportedly electrifying live act, this is your first chance to catch 2010's hot ticket from England's sunny north.
Delphic have spent the last 6 months collecting more "next big thing" and "best debut of 2010" tags than anyone's scrapbook has room for, and with good reason.
Their debut album Acolyte is a scintillating blend of classic Factory indie dance with the kind of resonant techno sheen that would have been impossible in the legendary label's heyday. Likewise, the Delphic live show has been receiving adulation for it's explosive flurry of frenetic energy and blistering car crash of lights and music.
Joining Delphic at different stops on this Modular throw down will be Sydney shooting stars Bag Raiders, he of Van She Matt Van Schie and the unstoppable Doom and Hoodrat.
Delphic's maiden voyage down under goes down on the below dates.
Acolyte, the debut album, is out now. Download the album for just $15 with every ticket purchased to selected shows.
