German-Swiss duo Grandbrothers

Grandbrothers, Messing Around With Grand Pianos Since 2012

Soundcheck | Feb 15, 2021

Minimalism, classical music, and electronic dance music all come together in the pulsating music of the German-Swiss duo Grandbrothers. Using live processing of the piano (the insides and all) as its primary source, the duo creates an irresistible groove under the influence of electronic dance music. The Dusseldorf-based duo Grandbrothers’ ("Messing around with grand pianos since 2012") latest record is All the Unknown, and they perform some of those songs, remotely.

Set list: "Ezra Was Right," "What We See,"  "All the Unknown"
