Finissage: Performance by GUSH and exhibition tour by Anna Gritz and Stefanie Kleefeld
09./10.04.2022
As part of “Do You Love Me Now?”
Performance by GUSH
In the frame of Liz Craft’s show Do You Love Me Now?, we cordially invite you to a performance by GUSH on Saturday, April 9, 2022 at 7 p.m. in the Kunsthalle Bremerhaven. GUSH are a new band featuring Steven Warwick & Iván Brito. They formed last year. Their sound teeters between acerbic terrace chant, surf rock and kaleidoscopic long form psychedelia. GUSH doesn’t care for “taxonomic concerns, jumps down the water slide and WHEEEEEE!!!” as they themselves say.
Steven Warwick is an artist and musician. Iván Brito is a musician. Both live in Berlin.
