About the artist

A Certain Ratio

A Certain Ratio, the eccentric British post-punk band hailing from Manchester, have been thrilling audiences since the late 1970s with their unique blend of funk, soul, and jazz-infused grooves. Formed by Jeremy Kerr, Martin Moscrop, and Peter Terrell, the band quickly gained a reputation for their infectious energy and genre-defying sound. Their early albums, "To Each..." and "Sextet", showcased their experimental approach to music, incorporating elements of dub and electronic music that set them apart from their peers. With their funky basslines, jazzy horns, and hypnotic rhythms, A Certain Ratio swiftly became a favorite among the UK underground scene. Despite never achieving mainstream success, A Certain Ratio's influence can be heard in the work of bands like LCD Soundsystem, Talking Heads, and The Happy Mondays. Their groundbreaking live performances are legendary, with Kerr's frenetic bass playing and Terrell's charismatic stage presence captivating audiences around the world. Their latest album, "ACR Loco", released in 2020, sees the band continuing to push boundaries and experiment with new sonic textures. From the infectious grooves of "Always in Love" to the dreamy atmospherics of "Bouncy Bouncy", A Certain Ratio prove they still have plenty of tricks up their sleeves. With their fearless creativity and unwavering dedication to their craft, A Certain Ratio remain a force to be reckoned with in the world of music. So grab your dancing shoes, because this is one band you won't want to miss.
