Our feature act this week is SCEViP. SCEViP is Stephanos Constandinou’s solo project revolving around an electric violin and a loop pedal. Inspired by the likes of Apocalyptica, Andrew Bird and Fotis Siotas, Stephanos makes use of the most unconventional techniques to deliver mesmerising shows that are up to par with a full band’s performance. Being a fan of alternative and progressive rock music, Stephanos gives an unusual twist to the sounds of the violin, successfully transforming it into a musical manifest and giving a whole new meaning to the phrase: one-man band AKA the Looping Madness.

OOTB 710 took place on Thursday 20th February. Line up was: Matthew Sier, Rosie Nimmo, Dog on a Swing, Gordon Sutherland, Colin Whitelaw, Neil Matthew Fox, Jim Bryce, Roy McIntosh, Majk Stokes, feature act: Sam Shackleton.
