I will be performing a new piece for improvising keys, electric guitar and electronics with Arthur Carabott and an improvisation with Sam Hayden (laptop) in a gig featuring Sussex University music postgraduate work. Should be fun and some interesting sounds..
Madelaine Hart has just released her debut ep, L.A.A, recording by Robin Grey for the modify the van creative commons label. I am on piano on ‘You Ain’t Grieving’ – the whole ep is definitely worth a listen and it’s free to download!!
I am excited to be taking part in an interesting art project at the Slade Art School, The Voice and Nothing More. The event is curated by Sam Belinfante and Neil Luck. I’ll be collaborating with visual artist Diana Taylor on a new piece for female voice and electronics that will be performed by Lore Lixembourg and myself on Thursday 15th January.
