About this event

Faith in Strangers Live Series: corto.alto

On Sun­day, 8th Decem­ber 2024, join us as Mer­cury Prize-short­list­ed artist corto.alto (aka Liam Short­all) brings his acclaimed sound to Faith In Strangers. This Scot­tish com­pos­er and mul­ti-instru­men­tal­ist has gained inter­na­tion­al recog­ni­tion for his debut album, Bad With Names, which cap­tures the raw ener­gy and depth of Glas­gow’s music scene. With mil­lions of streams and sup­port from lumi­nar­ies like Gilles Peter­son and Jamie Cul­lum, corto.alto’s music is root­ed in jazz yet bold­ly experimental.

Cur­rent­ly, Liam is explor­ing new hori­zons with his 30108 project, an ambi­tious col­lec­tion of 30 tracks released over 30 days. Known for fus­ing jazz impro­vi­sa­tion with elec­tron­ic beats and a grit­ty, DIY ethos, corto.alto’s live shows are a unique expe­ri­ence that defy genre expec­ta­tions. Pre­pare for an evening of inven­tive sound­scapes as this Mer­cury Prize nom­i­nee takes the stage.
