Bureau De Change (UK)

Bureau De Change is open for business. Their debut EP “Are You Flirting With Me?” was described as “Four Atonal Anthems that combine blistering musicianship, pulpit polemic, time signature jumping and righteous fury”. Guess what? Not enough Bureau de Change for you, they have ep number two on the way with the release of the first single “Dumb Men” out now!.

Flora, Will, Connor, and Louis have been playing all over the UK and Europe with other industry darling projects and have come together to create a sound that truly stands out amongst the ever-growing and developing UK post-punk scene. 

The band's recognizable writing style full of sardonic humor and decisive political messaging, is carried by their strong feminist undertones. They use striking imagery to draw idiosyncratic parallels to the world around them and the romanticized version of femininity. This is juxtaposed by the disjointed musical prowess (or lack of) to create a definitive sense of dissonance. The group has worked together to create a melodic and striking wall of sound that fills your entire body, a band that's strength comes through in their love of performance both live and recorded.
