ABOUT SHOLTO
Oscar ‘SHOLTO’ Robertson is a drummer, instrumentalist, producer & composer based in London. Growing up with a love for jazz, soul, kraut, and 60s & 70s soundtracks, his music expresses a warm array of colours, analogue instrumental grooves & euphoric sentimentality. His music career began in 2013, when a record deal took him to LA to work with producer Nick Waterhouse (Allah-Las) before returning to the UK & collaborating with the likes of Inflo (Cleo Sol), & Dan Carey (Wet Leg, Squid). He is also one half of production duo Sunglasses For Jaws.
Inspired by soundtrack composers from the 1950s-1970s like Piero Umiliani & David Axelrod, SHOLTO’s debut EP, ‘The Changing Tides Of Dreams’ received critical acclaim from tastemakers including Gilles Peterson, Deb Grant, Jyoty & Tony Minvielle. The project balances unapologetic ethereal textures with a deep sense of nostalgia & longing, drawing on disciplines from the world of film & classical music, as well as jazz & experimental arrangement techniques.
ABOUT LYLO
In support, Scottish trio LYLO will be taking things up a notch with their pulsating, engrossing rhythms & shimmering guitars, conjuring up the glamour of Bryan Ferry’s Sensation era. Their latest album, ‘Thoughts of Never’ was released in May on El Rancho Records, fusing wonky, Japanese-inspired pop soundscapes with nods to R&B & soul, intertwined with ambient pads. The album was engineered & co-produced with Joel Patchett (Billy Ocean, King Krule).
