The Poly presents ‘Hanterhir: Acoustic’
Coalescing in the deep Cornish countryside around Redruth, free from the fashions, foibles and fripperies of the mainstream music scene, Hanterhir have grown a sound all their own dipping toes in the waters of psych, prog, folk, post-punk and alt-rock. They released their fourth album The Saving Of Cadan in July 2018 to widespread international acclaim followed by a dual release of two albums on St Piran’s Day in 2019.
The band won an award at Gorsedh Kernow for their
contribution to Cornish culture and was featured on BBC television and BBC
Radio 1.
‘A cacophony of Celtic wildness, granite and storms roaring
across the grooves, sung in English and Cornish in an overwhelming Atlantic
tsunami of sound’- Record Collector, 5*
Ethereal and earthy. Orchestral, primeval
and spaced-out throbbing sonic sound scapes that suck the listener in and spin
'em into a spellbinding and enthralling listen of some what could be described
as Post-Psychedelic-Folk Rock.
This set is a departure from the
usual show, featuring an unplugged line up in our Main Gallery space, at the
top of The Poly!
