Sly & The Family Drone has been played on NTS shows including Fractal Meat On A Spongy Bone, with Grey Meat first played on 23 May 2016.

Sly & The Family Drone are Neo-Jazz wreckin' crew from London, UK. A primal orchestra of drum rhythms and radiophonic noise .

Sly's reductionist take on music is literal, they split their drum kit to it's singular base units, passing individual drums to the audience who maintain the beat while they free themselves for more noise and freestyle mayhem, ultimately eliminating any boundaries between spectator and performer. By the end of their set their drums and equipment are scattered, the remains of their music lying bare across the floor.

"Their live shows are becoming legendary. Things usually get broken. There will be more than likely blood. A must see live experience. No gig by Sly & The Family Drone is ever the same." Club Velocity 2011

There is no place for guitars within this band.

The ampersand is a must.
