The Green Machine started life as Lau accordionist Martin Green's commission piece for last year's Celtic Connections' New Voices series. Since then this band of show-stopping fun monkeys have become a formidable gigging entity. Wild noise carvings, voices of unspoilt beauty and a brass band shrunken and mutated during their trip through time and space sit atop a backline of broken beat and ferocious groove.
The Green Machine brings together some of the most prestigious and eclectic talent from England and Scotland to form a new collective set to mess the heads and feet of gig-goers the world over.
