“Please note: this concert takes place at LantarenVenster - Otto Reuchlinweg 996, Rotterdam, not at BIRD”

From BIRDfest to their first headline show at LantarenVenster Rotterdam, corto.alto returns on 14 October.

Presented by BIRD x LantarenVenster, the Glasgow-based collective led by Liam Shortall brings its explosive live show back to the city after making waves at BIRDfest and North Sea Jazz.

Something has been brewing in Glasgow for years. Between rain, clubs and rehearsal spaces, corto.alto built a sound where jazz, broken beat, soul and electronics collide. Think the energy of Ezra Collective, the grooves of Yussef Dayesand the warmth of Hiatus Kaiyote, wrapped in a raw Glasgow edge.

After North Sea Jazz 2024 and BIRDfest, corto.alto is ready for his next Rotterdam chapter.

Expanding his ambitions, new album ‘SOME SMALL FORTUNE’ features some fantastic collaborators. Chicago wordsmith Mick Jenkins featured on a recent single, while the record makes way for alt-R&B savant anaiis, Nigerian star Vector, fellow Scot Jacob Alon, and Oscar Jerome.Expanding his ambitions, new album ‘SOME SMALL FORTUNE’ features some fantastic collaborators.
