Nirosta Steel
Institute of Contemporary Arts, SW1Y 5AH , [Venue Details]My Skyscraper represents 40 years or so of works, re-works and works-forever-in-progress of one Steven Hall, aka Nirosta Steel — son of Scotland; step-son of the United States of America; adopted Daddy of Taiwan; Five-Star General in the Buddhist Army...
...friend, neighbor, collaborator and co-conspirator of Arthur Russell; and one of the most jaw-droppingly sincere songwriting voices you’ll hear in this wretched modern era. That's a ton of descriptors, but it's impossible to capture the full scope of this human being named Steven Hall.
‘My Skyscraper’ doesn’t really even scratch at the surface of his output. Plenty of material is already out there - a devastating 1999 live recording called Cool Fire; an EP produced with Russell called Foxy Pup; all his work with the storied outfit Arthur’s Landing, a not-quite-tribute group formed to carry Russell’s torch; and quite a load more.
He shares with Russell a forever-sculpting approach to songcraft. A folk version of a song here; a clubbed-out disco version of that same one over there. An absolutely maniacal organizational process that had us triple-checking our metadata. No, we've never met a dada quite like Hall. A True Scotch-American wildass.
Presented by Pitchfork Music Festival London.
