The London Snorkelling Team are a Sci-fi Cartoon Jazz Quartet that write and perform music they imagine happened in the 1950s. Tom and Mark (the Perrett brothers) provide live animation for each track. This BEAP concert will be a performance of their new album based around the map of a fictional island created by the Perrett brothers.

 

The London Snorkelling Team’s previous performances include concerts with video artist Dan Kluge in Munich, Germany and regular performances at the Shunt vaults and the Stoke Newington International Airport. They also performed an introduction to ‘Pataphysics as part of The Southbank Meltdown festival 2008. The London Snorkelling Team are the official orchestra of the London Institute of 'Pataphysics.

 

Tom and Mark Perrett have been directing animation with Nexus Productions since 2001. As well as creating music videos and commercials, they are also working on a futuristic comedy project with Brains and Hunch.


Showcasing the best in groundbreaking new music, Bishopsgate Emerging Artists Programme (BEAP) highlights the work of the next generation of cutting edge musicians and composers. BEAP is a partnership between the Centre for Creative and Professional Practice (Guildhall School of Music & Drama) and Bishopsgate Institute.
