LAURA CANNELL + LUCY GOOCH
Cafè Oto, E8 3DL , [Venue Details]Pleased to welcome back Laura Cannell, following the release of her A Compendium of Beasts - Volume 1, a kind of modern day medieval bestiary in sound. Cannell's ‘Beasts’ series opens the door on a new chapter in which she is searching for meaning amidst chaos
She embraces her feral medieval and improvisatory roots through her instruments as she plays a game of catch and release to explore the minds of these mythical and real animals.
Ecclesiastical and intimate, Gooch’s music resides somewhere between meditative flow and classical arrangement, recalling incantatory chanting as much as folk songwriting. Her looping vocals and evolving ambient electronics draw you in and invite you to listen more closely — harmonized vocal layers spin in place while she solos on top of them; buzzing organ tones lend a liturgical atmosphere with an almost imperceptible hint of serration in their edges.
Laura Cannell is an internationally acclaimed composer and musician whose music straddles the worlds of contemporary and ancient music, drawing on the emotional influences of the landscape. In 2024 she released a monthly EP series on her Brawl Records Label under the heading, ‘A Year of Lore’, and her 10th solo album ‘The Rituals of Hildegard Reimagined’ came out August 2024 to rave reviews.
