Eliot Lipp Plays the Fox Theatre, 2/7

Z2 Entertainment will proud to present Eliot Lipp at the Fox Theatre on Thursday, February 7th. Tickets will go on sale to the public on Friday, December 14th for $12.00 in advance and $14.00 day of show.

After more than eight years of global touring, seven solo albums, countless collaborations, label-head tastemaking and vital artist-incubator in the USA's most critical beat-making cities (SF, Chicago, NYC), Eliot Lipp's status as an electronic music pioneer is known to scene connoisseurs and weekend warriors alike. Lipp's omnivorous tastes are apparent, from the obvious funk and myriad manifestations of hip-hop though less explicit reference points as jazz fusion, folk and techno. His well-earned reputation as a producer's producer stems, in part, from his craftsmanship. Never content with well-worn breaks and effects, his work incorporates a fetishistic love of analogue gear with sampledelic flourishes, intricate rhythmic patterns and more than a few leftfield surprises. But his melodic instincts and tunefulness are what have earned him such wide appeal, his songwriterly connection to music's storytelling possibilities, even without words.

2012 has been a year of milestones for Eliot.  He signed with internationally renowned Pretty Lights Music, through which he released his most recent album, Shark Wolf Rabbit Snake, digitally and on vinyl. Shark Wolf Rabbit Snake is a bubbling cauldron filled with anything and everything—from 80's synthpop jams through jazzy funk to hiphop, with underlying electro breakdowns throughout. As Eliot continues to share his Signature Sound you can count on the unpredictability of what you'll hear from him next.
