If you look at some of the most exciting, innovative & critically acclaimed music that has come out of Sheffield - nay the beautiful North of England in the past 10 years - from the psychedelic electronic rock of ‘The Moonlandingz’ - to the folkloric radiophonic avant garde Of ‘Eccentronic Research Council ft Maxine Peake’ - to the party electro of International Teachers of Pop - at the heart of all these projects (and many more) is a man called Adrian Flanagan.
After ploughing his own path for more than a decade working on the fringes of alternative music as a songwriter, wordsmith, musician, producer, DJ and cultural agitator - working with artist as diverse as Maxine Peake, Yoko Ono, The Human League’s Philip Oakey, Fat white Family, Sean Lennon and many more - Adrian returns this year with a new solo Moniker - ACID KLAUS - and a conceptual collaborative solo album to be released by YARD ACT on their own ZEN F.C. record label this coming autumn.
The first single taken from the album is called ‘Party Sized Away Day’ - which features solo artist & one half of Sink Ya Teeth - Maria Uzor on vocals and was produced by Ross Orton (Working Mens Club/Amyl & the sniffers and many more).
