BIG|BRAVE + Sealionwoman — live event
BIG|BRAVE’s music has been described as massive minimalism. Their fusillades of textural distortion and feedback emphasize their music’s frayed edges as much as its all-encompassing weight. The potency of the trio’s work is their singular artistry combining elements of traditional folk techniques and a modern deconstruction of guitar music. Gain, feedback, and amplitude are essential to 2024's A Chaos Of Flowers, an album that builds on their ferocious 2023 album nature morte. Lyrically, the songs explore the most vulnerable of human experiences, how marginalizations manifest internally and externally, the inner struggles of isolation, and co-existence in nature. This year, they released OST, their most naked and austere record to date, showcasing the trio’s preternatural instincts and deep musical intuition. Conceived as a score for an imagined film, the album was born from improvisation rather than composition. Support from Sealionwoman. In 2018, Kitty Whitelaw of Sealionwoman had just completed the dark, atmospheric debut album ‘Siren’ with double bass player Tye McGivern, inspired by the Scottish folk tale of the selkie – a creature that can shapeshift between the forms of human and seal. That was an oceanic album, but Whitelaw’s growing fascination with yew trees – and a visit of her own to Crowhurst – saw them return to the land. Five years on, their astonishing second album ‘Nothing Will Grow In The Soil’ arrives: exploring the role these ancient, strange trees occupy in our culture, spirituality and imaginations.
