Part of In the Round at the Roundhouse (Camden) Portico
Quartet performed music from their fourth studio album Art in the Age
of Automation, as well as luminous classics from their much loved
back catalogue, and live debuts of previously unheard new music.

Mercury Prize-nominated Portico Quartet have always been an
impossible band to pin down. Sending out echoes of jazz, electronica,
ambient music and minimalism, the group created their own singular,
cinematic sound over the course of three studio albums, from their
2007 breakthrough Knee-Deep in the North Sea, and 2010 John Leckie
produced Isla, to the self-titled recording Portico Quartet in 2012. Now rebooted as Portico Quartet, with the return of Keir Vine on
hangs and keys after a brief spell as the three-piece Portico, the
group released their fourth studio album Art In The Age Of Automation
on forward thinking indie jazz and electronica label Gondwana Records
in August 2017. It’s been hailed as possibly their finest album
yet, with the band simultaneously delivering both a return to their
mesmeric signature sound and fresh new sonic departures in their new
music.
