Concert with Ultra Sheriff

"Ultra Sheriff - an awesome act I saw in Norway. Like Daft Punk meets Rammstein with animated backdrops of robots and shit"

Eddie White (Australian animation director)

The trio Ultra Sheriff can best be described as hard electronica with robot voices and grand choruses. The theme is sci-fi in a eighties cartoon style, and the concert is a combination of live music and animated backdrops.
