Tennyson - For You (Live Performance)

It’s hard to believe that brother and sister duo Luke and Tess Pretty are still only teenagers.

Producer Luke (who has adopted the surname Tennyson) is 18, while sister Tess (who’s on drums) is a mere 16 years old, and together they manage to distill a range of influences – from Aphex Twin to James Blake – into a delightful example of electronic pop.

FACT caught a recent performance of the duo’s track ‘For You’, and you can see just how they manage to make music that’s usually produced in front of a screen sound bright and alive.

I was at the show... incredible performance, totally unresponsive crowd. Can't wait to see where these two are going.

The vocals are panned so well it’s like ASMR

Is there a version of this with the live audio?

[holamellamowill]

i don't think this is actually audio from the show-- sounds exactly like the studio version, and a few of the drum hits seem to not sync up.  really great song tho and i'm excited to see this duo's promising musical future.

[PubeHairForestFire]

Better late than never, this song is my jiggity jam! lol..

[jiabinwang]

I know this video is out sync of the sound. but I still wanna know which part of the music is programmed and which part is played as live. what's that AKAI pad used for? what's that monome used for?

[TheZurul]

the singing and most of the electronic textures are terrible. good rhythms and the guy can play his jazz keyboard licks
