gogo Penguin

GoGo Penguin return to Bristol with Necessary Fictions, their bold new chapter in sonic exploration. The Manchester trio, pianist Chris Illingworth, bassist Nick Blacka and drummer Jon Scott, dive inward on their latest release, uncovering the raw, authentic qualities that drive their most fearless work yet.

Blending jazz, classical and electronica, they push further into new territory with modular synths, Moog textures and electrifying bass lines, gliding seamlessly between acoustic warmth and immersive electronic soundscapes.

Live, GoGo Penguin deliver a set that’s sharp, dynamic and impossible to box in. Drums leading the charge, melodies unfolding with cinematic precision. Expect fresh material, reimagined favourites and a performance that’s both powerful and deeply human.
