And So I Watch You From Afar

And So I Watch You From Afar is an instrumental post-rock band from Belfast, playing a concert at Future Yard in Birkenhead. The evening brings the Northern Irish group to a concert and performance venue on the Wirral.

And So I Watch You From Afar formed in Belfast in 2005 and plays instrumental rock with no vocals in the mix. The group released its self-titled debut album in 2009, followed by Gangs in 2011, and is signed to Smalltown America Records. Its music moves between angular, noisy passages and pulsing, euphoric sections, a sound that resists easy classification.

The band has toured across Europe, the United States and Russia, and has built a cult following around albums that are uncompromising and exploratory in approach. Its live shows are described as combining joy, power and a sense of escape, with the band's sound built on dynamic, charging instrumental passages.

Future Yard is a concert and performance venue in Birkenhead, and this date brings the band there. The evening suits listeners drawn to independent, experimental rock who want to hear a band that works outside conventional song structures.
