about

Manchester Folktronica duo 'Bulbs of Held' combine the talents of Guitarist / Vocalist Chris Plack, and Sound Designer / Mixologist Paul Vickers. Plack and Vickers have worked with sound for all their adult lives, but from strikingly different perspectives.

Plack rocked out in Brighton Indie guitar bands Elysium and Readers Wives during the 90s and 00s, before settling down to a successful academic career in Hearing Science. Indeed, Plack is one of the world’s leading Psycho-Acousticians, and is currently Professor of Audiology at the University of Manchester. Vickers spent much of his earlier years Disc Jockeying in London, Berlin, Manchester, Teeside and Ibiza, as well as working at Audio Post-Production Studios in Soho, and on Independent Films as a Sound Designer following a Sound & Media Degree.

It was in Manchester that a chance meeting between the two led to an exchange of tracks and a cunning plan. Their name comes from a type of chemical connection between nerve cells in the auditory brain, and appropriately their sound is a Cerebral Fusion of Indie, Electronica, Trip-Hop and Folk. Their love of Psycho-Acoustics and the infinite possibilities of auditory perception inspire their music, which is designed to reach the hair cells that other bands cannot reach.
