First shown in London in 2007, followed by Rotterdam, New York, São Paulo and Rio di Janeiro, it now will be here until May.

Live with Lizzy!- Gengahr18-11-15
I for one am very excited for Clockenflap this year. Personally, this excitement grew when I found out Gengahr was coming over to Hong Kong for the first time to perform at the event. With the recent release of their new album, A Dream Outside, the London based band is scheduled to play on Your Mum’s stage, 2:30pm on Saturday, November 28th. I would encourage anyone to check out their album; especially if you’re into Tame Impala and MGMT. This sound is quality psych-pop, eerily beautiful vocals and trippy composition.
