Reading Group – Two-Day Residency – w/ Fred Moten + Brandon Lopez

Cafè Oto, E8 3DL , [Venue Details]

Reading Group is a New York-based record label operated by Derek Baron and Emily Martin.

Saturday,
26 Apr 2025
@7.30pm

Beginning in 2016 with runs of 20 CD-rs of James Krivchenia’s Taylor Swift-inspired computer music and Cop Tears’s attempt at reading through John Cage’s Thirteen Harmonies, the label has since released over 30 albums ranging from the archival cassette tape diaries of David Wojnarowicz to the incendiary improvising trio of Fred Moten, Brandon Lopez, and Gerald Cleaver.

This two-day residency represents the label’s longstanding relationship to creative music in London in general and Cafe OTO in particular. (Derek’s first record release concert, and 26th birthday, were at OTO in 2015).

Both nights are headlined by Moten and Lopez in duo formation in their first performance at OTO in two years, supported on both nights by Reading Group artists of the past and present. On Saturday, they are joined by the London-based duo of poet and filmmaker Zara Joan Miller and cellist Ute Kanngießer as well as X-Ray Hex Tet (featuring Seymour Wright, Crystabel Riley, Edward George, Pat Thomas, Paul Abbott, and Billy Steiger).

Sunday will also feature performances by writer/artist Imani Mason Jordan as well as Cop Tears (Baron, John Andrew Wilhite, Cameron Kapoor, and John Welsh).
