-------------------------------------
With a rich and extensive background in Australian music, Sia Ahmad
has been creating idiosyncratic sounds over the last decade and more.
Using guitar, keyboard, voice and electronics, she works both as
singer/composer and improviser, when performing as Shoeb Ahmad, as well
as collaborative projects.
Her
new record as Shoeb Ahmad is titled "double checks against the corner"
and was released last year on No Gold, the new label launched by Angus
Andrew from Liars. A song cycle that weaves a narrative around
relationship breakdown, reconciliation and parenthood, "double checks
against the corner" brings together Sia's experimental sound art practice with the purity of honest pop songwriting and deep beat heavy production
Bad Ambulance is the ongoing electronic music project of Jack Palmer. 'Bad Ambulance A/V' is the live show — a self-styled improvised collaging practice that syncs samples from the Bad Ambulance catalogue with found-footage. Music and video samples are looped, overlayed and modulated in realtime producing hypnotic chain of near-danceable bardo spaces. Like ghosts stuck on repeat, they emerge and dissipate with a dream-like logic. Earlier this year, Bad Ambulance released mini-album / cassette ‘Intel 95’ via Nice Music.
Glass are Fin, George and Andrew.
A forlorn type of jangle might be a good place to start (possibly end) with regards to what sound the trio make together. Ringing open strings, spidery left hand activity, a baritone voice and for now a drum machine may also help a conjuring some sort estimated tune in your head.
Not abrasive nor easygoing, but something else.
This event takes place on unceded, sovereign, Wurundjeri Land. We pay our respects to the traditional custodians and acknowledge that this always was and always will be aboriginal land.
