Akrobat

Dublin-based Indie-Electronica outfit Akrobat are an art-rock proposition like no-other. Representing a diverse blend of cultures, ages and backgrounds that transcends barriers, Akrobat is the kind of band that resonates with all audiences.

With a strong female lead, a 19-year-old drumming prodigy and influences from Irish, Turkish and Spanish cultures, they embody the contemporary essence of Dublin and Europe, capturing the zeitgeist of the present moment.

Reluctant to be confined to an exclusive style of music, the Dublin-London-based group move between overlapping genres and sounds with agility, from left-field to mainstream to somewhere in between. Akrobat cleverly fuses elements of indie, garage, electronica, new-wave punk, funk and jazz to create a distinct sound metamorphosis.
