Kid Carpet makes peculiar disco punk music with Casio keyboards, things that other people have thrown away … and cardboard!
Kid Carpet is a musician who produces simple, catchy songs and disruptively charming shows. He creates superheroes out of everyday people and ordinary things. Our DIY DJ has a big heart and big beats, creating mystical music for big AND little people!
With a punk rock attitude and battery-operated, wonky wisdom, Kid Carpet brings you an experience like no other that the older folk in the audience might appreciate as a weird and wonderful mix of everything from Ivor Cutler through Gorillaz to The Fall.
Hosted by everyone’s favourite alt-rocker and psych-storyteller, Anna Palmer, the gig will focus on celebrating Earth Day. So join Appetite, ArtsKeele, and the UK’s premiere experimental music festival – Supersonic – for a joyful and quite possibly ridiculous romp through live music!
The show is entirely relaxed, so feel free to get up, move around and make as much noise as you like!
This activity is part of What on Earth?!, a two-day a celebration of Earth Day 2024 at Keele University campus. Over two days there will be plenty of events, activities and inspiring information about our fantastic planet – and beyond!
This activity takes place in the Chapel, number 7 on this campus map. Appetite, ArtsKeele and Keele University invite you to get involved in as many activities as you can! You can book tickets for free on Eventbrite, and if you wish make a donation towards Appetite’s work bringing more inspiring arts events to Stoke and Newcastle.
You can see all bookable activities on the What on Earth?! Eventbrite collection, and get a sneak peak of Stardome on the What’s On page.
