Katz Mulk + Mary Hurrell + Rob Lye

No Longer Available

Afraid that due to unforseen circumstances Slow Reading Club have had to drop out of the line-up. In their place will be a solo set by Rob Lye.

"Deeply embedded in the Manchester underground, Katz Mulk was born out of the Human Heads crew. The trio makes warped electronics, auto tuned improv and loose pop music that combines the best of hipstertronics and hardcore avant-garde music." – Kraak

KATZ MULK

Based in Glasgow/Tokyo and featuring group mainstays Ben Morris and Ben Ellul-Knight with a rotating cast of collaborating artists & dancers, katz mulk infuse  dance, sculpture, and choreography into slippery avant electronic pop. Katz Mulk have performed at Counterflows Festival (2019) and were invited on a residency in Hong Kong by the Xevarion Institute (2023) where they developed the music for all the mess, their most recent release on the Brussels-based label Futura Resistenza. An absurdist collection of songs (of sorts) about playing, play work, and the labour of play. Katz mulk like the idea of the spontaneous gesture oozing from song like tree sap that can be distilled into something you'll gamely put on your morning oats.
 
For this show Ben Ellul-Knight will be joined by the artist Rob Lye and other collaborators.

Slow Reading Club

SRC is the Brussels based duo of the dancer-choreographer Bryana Fritz & the artist-musician Henry Andersen. As S-R-C they devise performative reading encounters, but for tonight's performance they will draw on their individual practices to create a desktop choreography out of projections; stillness and a spoken, mutating litany of words in French, German & English. As a dancer Bryana has performed in the works of She performed in the works of Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker, Xavier le Roy, and many others. Henry released his Stanzas LP on the Belgian-based KRAAK label.
