lavender is a London-based duo formed by Oskar Rice and Adam Jackson. Their music draws on influences that range from American Football and Burial to Steve Reich and J Dilla, and the two bring these disparate strands together in their songs.

Sampling plays a central role in their work. Adam Jackson's voice and Oskar Rice's beats are woven through layers of fine, overlapping audio, so it is difficult to tell where one contribution ends and the other begins. The arrangements are melody-rich, and repeated listening reveals more of how the pieces unfold.

This concert takes place at The Rum Shack, a Glasgow venue that hosts concerts and shows.
