Adrian has spent two decades working on the fringes of alternative music as a songwriter, wordsmith, musician, producer, remixer, DJ and cultural agitator – working with artists as diverse as Maxine Peake, Yoko Ono, The Human League’s Philip Oakey, Fat White Family, Sean Lennon and many more.
Adrian returns with his next album under the Acid Klaus moniker in September.

If you look at some of the most exciting, innovative and critically acclaimed electronic music that has come out of the beautiful North of England over the past years; from the psychedelic electronic rock of The Moonlandingz, to the folkloric radiophonic avantgarde Of Eccentronic Research Council ft Maxine Peake, to the party electro of International Teachers of Pop; at the forefront of all these projects (and many more) is a man in a hat and shades called Adrian Flanagan.

“A phenomenal vortex of doof, Elevate and Blow Your Speakers make The Chemical Brothers look like James Blake.” ~

“Conceptual, alter ego-driven spectacular” ~ Loud & Quiet

“The sort of the off-the-boil record Moroder would’ve made to prove how vital he still was.” ~ Uncut Magazine

Current Mood Girl
Experimental pop musician, producer and performer CURRENTMOODGIRL makes sounds that dance between the dark and the light, resembling the industrial landscape of Manchester, her Northern hometown. Utilising electrical pick-ups and dark, glitching synths, she creates textured soundscapes melting together with her siren-like but raw vocals. Her rhythmic beats and anchoring basslines are eminently danceable.
