HighHouse presents GIOLÌ & ASSIA (ITA)
Supported by David Carollo
04 May, Saturday
10pm - 3am
HighHouse is honoured to present GIOLÌ & ASSIA this 4th May. Fiercely independent self-made duo Giolì & Assia are blazing their own trail and blending their own sound. Their indie techno pop finds beauty in the contrasts of light and dark, hope and despair, classical and contemporary. It is a live mix of powerful melodies, spine-tingling vocals and the sonorous tones of their signature handpan all married to driving electronic rhythms.
Multi-instrumentalists, singer-songwriters, DJs and label owners, Giolì & Assia are in complete control of their creative world. They wrote, performed, produced, sang and recorded their new album – as well as early breakout singles “Stay Closer,” “Endless,” and “Blame On Me” on labels like Spinnin Records – entirely alone. These powerful messages are conveyed by music that is just as moving. It is all produced live by the duo, with Giolì’s long-perfected playing skills on a range of instruments. Whether it’s the piano, cello, drums, guitar or the distinctive handpan which unifies the Giolì & Assia sound, she translates very real and personal emotions through the instruments she has been playing all her life. On the other side are Assia’s exquisite vocals which are often heartbreakingly celestial and inescapably emotional.
A shared love of house and tech made it natural for the pair to encompass club-heavy beats into their sound. Further influences from Coldplay to Alt J to The Chainsmokers inspired them to start their now legendary and boundary-pushing video series “#DiesisLive”. With a look as stunning as their sound, they have streamed from unreal locations such as a volcano in the Aeolian Islands, the Andromeda Theater in the Province of Agrigento and next to a breathtaking Fjallsarlon Glacier Lagoon in Iceland.
Come 4th May, experience a hybrid show with Assia's ethereal voice complemented by Giolì's signature handpan with a mix of Afro house, techno and underground tech that the pair love so much. Whether in the studio or on stage, Giolì & Assia take you on an emotional rollercoaster unlike any other act in the world.
