Corto Alto + support

Liam Shortall aka Corto Alto (which literally means short.tall in Spanish, a nod to the birthplace of his grandmother) is a prolific, 2024 Mercury-music prize nominated multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer from Glasgow. Balancing a classical jazz education with witty self-deprecation and long nights making beats, he schooled himself in dub, reggae, Latin, punk, and hip-hop and developed an ear for improvised electronics to create a sound all of his own. His work was described as "Forward-thinking and exciting" by Skinny Mag and has beenlauded by BBC 6 Music, Jamie Cullum, and a growing army of fans at festivals and venues across the UK and Europe.
