August Radio Show Now Live

This month is another special themed radio show. Reflecting on the sheer size of my digital music library, I decided to shuffle it and use that shuffle as the playlist for this show but mix it all together myself. No exceptions, no skipping anything and including it all until I hit the two hour mark.

Grouper to perform new collaboration in Leeds

Grouper new pic “Hypnosis Display” is a new commission from Portland based artist and musician Grouper (Liz Harris), with filmmaker Paul Clipson. For this new commission, she joins forces with 16mm filmmaker Paul Clipson to create a meditation on contemporary America in sound and image, as part of a series of American mythmaking in music, commissioned by Opera North Projects. Shifting her gaze outwards from a typically intensely personal approach to making music, this new 1hr 15 minute piece looks at the landscapes of American mythmaking including The West Coast, the worker, the city and the street.

It takes place at Leeds Howard Assembly Rooms on Thursday 5th June. Tickets are available here.
