These New Puritans consist of twin brothers George and Jack Barnett, their friend Thomas Hein and assorted other instrumentalists. They have released two albums on Domino/Angular Records, 2008’s Beat Pyramid and 2010’s highly acclaimed Hidden.
The group’s ‘Hidden Live’ shows at the end of last year drew an exhilarating close to a triumphant 2010. Conducted by Andre de Ridder (Monkey : Journey To The West, Philharmonia, BBC Symphony Orchestra), this ambitious production featured a 14 piece orchestra and a children’s choir, and wowed audiences across Europe, including sold out shows at The Barbican in London and The Pompidou Centre in Paris. This stunningly shot split screen film is the encore from ‘Hidden Live : Berlin’, featuring ‘Irreversible’ and ‘En Papier’ reworked.
