Dolittle are delightly to annonce the return of Icelandic Edinburgh based BENNI HEMM HEMM on Wednesday 24th March, Upstairs @ Whelan‘s. After a magnificent performance back in May of last year this tour will see BHH performing tracks from his new EP RETALIATE, his first international release. Guests on the night will be Dublin indie pop band THE GORGEOUS COLOURS.
////////////
The Icelandic Edinburgh based Benni Hemm Hemm is back in the UK & Ireland, along with a few of his brass playing band mates.
Benni will release an EP in March/April called Retaliate, which is Benni Hemm Hemm´s third EP, but the previous two, Summer Plate and Ein i leyni, have been released in Iceland only. Retaliate will be released worldwide in April on Kimi Records on both CD and 10” vinyl.
The Icelandic band Benni Hemm Hemm has performed in every form imaginable, the band has played as a stripped down trio as well as a 50 piece orchestra. Benedikt H. Hermannsson is the band leader, writes the songs and the arrangements and produces the band´s recordings.
At the few low key solo shows Benni has done in Scandinavia, the UK and in Iceland, the atmosphere has been electric and intense, in the best possible way. The stripped down melodies find their ways to the listener´s ears through new channels, flying from the guitar and harmonica in between verses where Benni sings his verses in both English and Icelandic. Among his subjects are Italian geography, politics in Pakistan and Afghanistan, troubadouring in 11th century France, and viking robberies, all mixed together in a stew that you will never forget. Oh, and love, Benni sings of love.
