The Journey

Prepare to embark on a journey.
Let’s weave and howl.
Let’s fill the city with colourful harmonies and chattering gestures.

Come together and celebrate the power of community and embrace joy wherever the path may lead you.

This staggeringly unique and uplifting experience combines an original progressive pop score with sign language and contemporary dance.

Expect a curious, jubilant parade, replete with intricate rhythms, expressive motions and a healthy dose of hope.

We encourage you, intrepid traveler, to dance, sing and sign with us.

Let’s gather under the big sky and marvel in the moment.

Hearts open. Voices and hands in unison.

“Completely extraordinary”

BBC 6 Music

“A beguiling, euphoric blast of energy.”

The Scotsman

“Perhaps Contraption have the rare joy of being unbelievably talented, but also collaboratively telepathic.
You feel at once as though you’re watching something meticulously crafted and beautifully chaotic”

Musical Theatre Review

Perhaps Contraption is a multi-award winning, progressive brass band from London. Part choir, part chamber orchestra, part avant rock band, they create a truly unique musical experience; melding elements of jazz, art pop and post-minimalism.

Their sound can feel like staggering through a twisted fairground – beautiful and astonishing, replete with irregular but irresistible rhythms, triumphant horns and enormous choral harmonies.
