Singing Knives and Architects of Harmonic Rooms present:
Sunburned Hand of the Man
A band in the loose sense of the word; its better describes as a banner under which a collective of musical freaks have gathered. Based in Boston, their music incorporates everything from early American folk music to drone, free jazz, space rock and funk. Seen by many as being at the forefront of the burgeoning “New Wierd Americana” movement and certainly no to be missed.
Mick Flower & Chris Corsano
Mick Flower of Vibracathedral Orchestra on shahi baaja (an electric Indian dulcimer/auto-harp) and Massachusetts' Chris Corsano (Six Organs of Admittance, Sunburned hand of the Man, Jandek, Dream/Aktion Unit with Thurston Moore and Jim O'Rourke) on drums. Psych-damage with heavy Indian classical influence cross-pollinated with estatic free improvisation.
Hush Arbors
The sounds of spring waking up from its winter slumber.
Chora
Free noise, minimal chimmings to squirming noise squalls to primitive bone banging primal chimp dawn choruses.
Feral Children
A collaborative venture between folk singer James William Hindle (soon to be Current 93 collaborator) and artist Jamie Crewe. Mixing raga style electric guitar and lopped vocals, with elements of electronic weirdness, call and response singing of Indian traditional music.
