We are pleased to announce our collaboration with Matthew Herbert, Rosie Sykes and Accidental Records on ONE PIG , DEAD AND ALIVE on Thursday 15th December 2011
ONE PIG, DEAD AND ALIVE will be the official London launch of Herbert’s acclaimed ONE PIG album, on which he documents the journey of a single anonymous farm animal from birth to plate. It has been hailed by reviewers since its release, with ClashMusic awarding the album a rare 10/10 and DrownedInSound calling ONE PIG “a fascinating journey from someone at the top of his craft“.
The evening will begin with a short introduction and debate between Herbert, Tim Hayward (Guardian, Fire & Knives) and soon-to-be-announced special guests.
Then Herbert’s band, recently returned from touring in Europe and Japan, will bring ONE PIG to life in a live performance centering on the StyHarp, a new instrument which plays and manipulates the samples used to make the album.
After listening to ONE PIG’s life, guests will sit down to a three course pop-up restaurant meal in which, among other things, pork from the same family as ONE PIG will be offered. The ONE PIG, DEAD AND ALIVE restaurant is presented by Rosie Sykes (St Johns Restaurant, Sutton Arms) and Claire Roberson from Shacklewell Nights.
