MUSIC: Sister Bliss to play Faithless DJ set

AS THE musical force behind Faithless, world-renowned DJ and record producer Sister Bliss needs no introduction.

Together with iconic frontman Maxi Jazz and producer Rollo Armstrong (brother of Dido), she formed Faithless, one of the most successful electronic acts with a career spanning 20 years to include seven albums (two at number 1), and six top 10 singles.

To date, Faithless have sold in excess of 15 million records worldwide and have played live to millions.

Inspired by her love for discovering new music, Sister Bliss launched her own label, Junkdog Records.

An outlet for signing new music she believes in, Junkdog has been championing the freshest of alternative music.  Between her label duties and a busy schedule of upcoming releases, she continues to DJ and play to fans across the world.  She also broadcasts a weekly radio show, ‘Sister Bliss in Session’ that is currently syndicated to 40 countries globally. Last year marked the 20-year milestone in an illustrious career for Faithless and to celebrate the band curated a special remix album, ‘Faithless 2.0’ by calling on the great and the good of electronic music to remix their catalogue including Amici, Ties to, Flux Pavilion, Above and Beyond, Book Shade, Clapton, High Contrast, Eric Pried, Purple Disco Machine and Armin Van Burren. 

An artistic retrospective and testament to one of the most influential bands of a generation and as revered today as when their journey began two decades ago, ‘Faithless 2.0’ went straight in at number 1. Following this success the band will continue to tour their iconic show, as well as working on brand new material with more to come in 2016.

Catch them at The Academy on Sunday, October 24.
