Published in Scotland On Sunday, 25 June 2017 | Words by Derick Mackinnon and Olaf Furniss. Read on Scotsman.com [in association with Electric Fields Festival] FUTURE GET DOWN Artist of the Week in Scotland On SundayOne of the highlights of the recent XpoNorth showcase in Inverness, was a packed gig featuring two men dressed in bee-keeper outfits, with an additional three musicians providing a range of additional instrumentation. The band in question, Future Get Down, were formed by bassist Ally Dennis and award-winning brewer Oli Kass.Both were in Edinburgh electro-groove outfit Homework and their new musical vehicle ploughs a similar furrow, albeit enhanced by the vocals of percussionist Jeanne Laidlaw. This winning combination is exemplified on the recently-released track, End Of The World After Party http://bit.ly/FGDUTR With a handful of cool shows already under the belt, including at Edinburgh’s Caves and the Stag & Dagger Festival, the band’s next scheduled live outing is at the Electric Fields Festival.
