ChopChop

ChopChop play eclectic songs that veer from super-bumping agit-funk to angular jazz-punk and beyond. Led by the gesticulations Galician performance artist Xelís de Toro, the band whip up a tense and exciting brew of sounds live, and have been described as “a fantastic life affirming noise” by BBC Radio 6 Music.

“CHOPCHOP’s music snakes round its orator like a slippery thing, cymbals replaced by the clatter of hubcaps on toms, cutlery-jammed guitars – there’s an itchy jazzy vibe to the melodics, fuelled by a fertile imagination full of bruised shapes and punkish angles.” – FREQ
