The Vibe Mechanics are an absurd collision of ecstatic psychedelia and joy.
Front-man Pete is a comic, poet and loop-station artist whose mission is to incite carnival, wonderment and riotous love. His lyrics touch on themes of madness, philosophy and civil unrest, with the help of loop machines and FX machinery. Expect to skank, laugh, sing, and get very silly.
Pete has performed at over thirty festivals and has stage-dived into audiences of up to five thousand people. His live shows incorporate beatbox, comedy and crowd surfing.
Pete’s work has been featured on BBC Radio 4, Newsnight and the World Service. He is a former Hammer & Tongue UK Poetry Slam champion and has performed in over fifteen countries with organisations that include The British Council.
