Automotion

Formed by school friends Jesse Hitchman (vocals/guitar) and Lennon Gallagher (vocals/guitar), Automotion swiftly recruited drummer Otis Eatwell-Hurst, with bassist Luke Chin-Joseph joining after seeing the nascent band’s shows at Brixton’s Windmill. Debut single ‘Mind and Motion’ was released in March of 2021 and provides a thrilling glimpse at a band who are here to create, evolve and constantly challenge themselves. With half of the band currently studying Fine Art, the influences Automotion cite are eclectic, ranging from Marcel Duchamp and John Cage through to American literary greats such as William S Burroughs and Bukowski, krautrock legends Neu! and the legendary guitar playing of Robert Fripp. Working with such a broad range of inspiration, Automotion have set themselves up to do things differently and are fast proving themselves to be both a creative and intellectual force to be reckoned with. Automotions second EP, Ecstatic Oscillations was released September 23rd 2022
