SUMMARY:Any Young Mechanic
LOCATION:The Deaf Institute
DESCRIPTION:Having taken their name from a line in Hooray For Hollywood –
  inspired by the song’s jarring use in Robert Altman’s Philip Marlowe 
 detective movie The Long Goodbye – there is an aptly cinematic quality t
 o Any Young Mechanic’s music. With intricate scenes\, enthralling narrat
 ives and unique characters cropping up across the lyrics\, and a kaleidosc
 opic yet coherently interwoven spectrum of moods and emotions stretching t
 hrough the music\, the Adelaide five-piece bring a fresh language to folk 
 music’s natural propensity to spin a good yarn. So rather than offering 
 borrowed references illuminated by the cosy flickers of campfire flames\, 
 on their debut album The Modern Shoe Is Ruining The Foot\, the Australian 
 band’s urgent songs conjure up vivid\, widescreen vistas that blend the 
 genre’s enduring charms with a musical dexterity and sharp vision reachi
 ng beyond folk’s usual corners. “We are trying to make folk music for 
 now\,” suggests frontman Sam Wilson. “Turning it on its head in a new
 \, sometimes uncanny way\, because we don't want to just do the old thing 
 again. I don't think it’s interesting to make things again\, so we’re 
 searching for a contemporary edge.” The roots of this original yet inclu
 sive approach\, in part\, go back to the Adelaide music scene that helped 
 to forge Any Young Mechanic. Though all five studied aspects of music\, fr
 om classical to contemporary\, at Adelaide’s Elder Conservatorium\, it w
 as the intimate\, interconnected nature of the DIY music scene in Australi
 a’s fifth city that helped to shape the band. At the same time\, an orga
 nic influence from South London also proved as useful as instruction on cr
 otchets and minims\, song structures and production. “Adelaide is a smal
 l city so it’s a small scene\, but a very tight knit musical community\,
  everyone plays in everyone’s else’s bands\,” explains violinist and
  multi-instrumentalist Thea Martin\, recalling how half a world away Adela
 ide’s musicians were galvanised in 2019 by the emergence of Black Midi a
 nd Black Country\, New Country New Road around Brixton.\n\nBoletos: https:
