The Skein (a.k.a. Andrea Parkins & Jessica Constable)

From Andrea Parkins’ effects-processed accordion to Jessica Constable’s vocals, The Skein is a duo which produces a dynamic electro-acoustic mix in which everything is in a constant state of searching and disruption. An underlying bluesy feel is forever being led off on tangents. A rough-edged, visceral ensemble much given to improvisation.

Αlva Noto

Alva Noto is eternally torn between his underground lyricism and the cool austerity of his diamond-sharp aesthetic. He shades minimal, rhythmic wholes with tone colour and introduces tensions into lyric works like his collaborations with Ryuichi Sakamoto. He will also be creating rhythmic digital movements in this supremely audiovisual performance.
