ANNOUNCE MANUMISSION RESIDENCY
FOR IBIZA SUMMER 2005
Fischerspooner are pleased to announce a residency at Manumission, Ibiza for the Summer 2005 season. The NYC based art/pop group will take the stage as part of the world famous Manumission live show
every Monday from July 4th to September 19th at Privelege, San Rafael, Ibiza.
Fischerspooner’s own shows have been the subject of acclaim and controversy since they started performing in NYC clubs and galleries in 1999. Packed to bursting with dancers, stage effects,
elaborate wardrobe changes and lip synch the shows they performed in conjunction with their debut album, ‘#1’ became legendary for their irreverent take on an ‘outsider’ pop show spectacular.
For the shows in support of their new album ‘Odyssey’, Fischerspooner will incorporate live music for the first time and a new production design to be premiered in Ibiza and over summer
festivals to be announced.
Manumission began life in 1994 in Manchester, England with an idea to revolutionize the club scene and within 12 weeks had been voted best club in the UK. They took their philosophy to the Ku
club in Ibiza (now Privilege and officially the world's biggest club), originally just a small event in one of Ku’s bar areas, it quickly expanded to take in the entire 10,000 capacity, hanger-like space every Monday night. And now
Manumission – whose name translates from the Latin as ‘freedom from slavery’ – enjoys a reputation as one of the most liberal and hedonistic events in the world - a multimedia extravaganza cross pollinating the worlds of
film, theatre, performance art, and music in a night club environment.
Manumission also lead the charge on the cutting edge of the mainstream club scene in Ibiza. Actively pursuing the new wave of DJs and live dance music, they have hosted DJ sets and live
performances from The Rapture, LCD Soundsystem, Electric Six and 2 Many DJs over the last two summers.
Fischerspooner launch their new album ‘Odyssey’ on April 11 th through EMI Records. The first single ‘Just Let Go’ is released on March 28 th.
