The Levenshulme Bicycle Orchestra (L.B.O) is the efforts of Zeke
Clough, David Birchall, and Huw Wahl. L.B.O seeks to use constructed instruments alongside the conventional, to provide reclaimed sounds that interact and delve into the feelings of the players, the space – and the audience. The group is therefore as much a cathartic tool as a band. It has been described as ‘dadaist’ and ‘playfull’, and as well as being theatrical and entertaining, the orchestra aims to be more than just a stand up – play – stand down, band. L.B.O is always changing and the sound is hard to pin down, but think Public Image Ltd and Konono Number One mixed up, come and see for yourself.
