About
The highly anticipated return of ARBORIST with full 6-piece band to Flowerfield Arts Centre.
"A staggering debut of depth and substance" - UNCUT
"Magnificent debut" - Hotpress
In March 2022, Mark McCambridge embarked on a solo trip to Spacebomb Studios in Richmond, Virginia to record the third ARBORIST album. Working alongside Matthew E White (Producer) and recording with the legendary Spacebomb House Band they completed what has become An Endless Sequence of Dead Zeros, set to be released on Kirkinriola Records in April 2023.
Belfast native Mark McCambridge played his first show as ARBORIST supporting James Yorkston. A solo tour followed before impressive performances led to notable support slots alongside Low, Cat Power, Echo and The Bunnymen and Guy Garvey.
Arborist came to the attention of critics with their debut single, the Americana tinged, 'Twisted Arrow,' that features an astonishing duet with Kim Deal of The Breeders.
Their debut album Home Burial (2016) and the follow-up A Northern View both received glowing praise from the likes of The Guardian ("instant classic. ★★★★" ) MOJO ("…devastatingly bleak…upliftingly beautiful. ★★★★") and Uncut 8/10. With BBC 6music play from Cerys Matthews, Cillian Murphy, Gideon Coe and Steve Lamacq who called single Taxi, "one of those records that makes you immediately stop what you're doing."
A sold-out tour in Oct/Nov 2022 alongside Americana high-flyers The Delines is followed-up with a full-band UK and Ireland tour in 2023.
During lockdown Arborist presented an online performance for Flowerfield. Two long years later we look forward to welcoming Arborist with a full 6-piece band to perform live the highly-anticipated Flowerfield gig on Saturday 29th April.
