SUMMARY:Whitney Johnson/Lia Kohl/Macie Stewart\, Duffy x Uhlmann\, Claire R
 ousay DJ Set
LOCATION:Zebulon
DESCRIPTION:**Whitney Johnson\, Lia Kohl\, Macie Stewart**\n\n**Duffy x Uhl
 mann**\n\nWhitney Johnson\, Lia Kohl\, and Macie Stewart are a trio who ut
 ilize string instruments\, voices\, and manual tape effect processing to c
 raft compositions from alternately tranquil and disquieting improvised mus
 ic. The three musicians are individually rooted in deep sound exploration
 \, multi-disciplinary composition\, and all manner of cross-genre collabor
 ation. The musical ground covered by their solo practices is corresponding
 ly expansive\, and their individual recording and performance credits read
  as a veritable who’s who\, ranging from DIY darlings to household names
  of experimental avant-garde\, electronic\, indie rock\, and more.\n\nThei
 r influences are vast — dispatched with more playful ease than a trio of
  string instruments is typically approached with\, and just as likely to b
 e found in the cloud-obscured mountains of Donegal\, the low-rent cacophon
 y of a Midwestern basement\, or the revelatory expanse of the Nurse With W
 ound list as in the storied halls of the academy. Touchstones and areas of
  interest aside\, the main thing that Johnson\, Kohl\, and Stewart engage 
 with in BODY SOUND is: listening and reacting.\n\nThe album’s lead singl
 e “dawn | pulse” is an undulating slow roller\, a free time drift of b
 owed tonal clusters respiring in long\, melodic swells\, and unfurling amo
 ng wordless singing. Both majorly serene and deceptively avant garde\, “
 dawn | pulse” is a perfect entrée into BODY SOUND.\n\nBODY SOUND is dee
 p\, melancholy\, and triumphant\, coming across like a kind of lost or ama
 lgamated folk music. It’s also part of an ongoing creative continuum\, i
 nformed by the improvised music idioms of the trio’s hometown\, Chicago
 \, and boasts track titles adapted from Yoko Ono’s classic book of text 
 scores Grapefruit.\n\nInternational Anthem engineer and album co-producer 
 Dave Vettraino worked alongside the trio to translate the sonic specificit
 ies of three recording locations: International Anthem studios on Iron Str
 eet (Chicago)\, Shirk Studios (Chicago)\, and Boyd’s Jig and Reel (Knoxv
 ille\, TN\, as part of the 2025 Big Ears Festival). Then Johnson\, Kohl\, 
 and Stewart edited and reshaped the recordings by hand\, employing multipl
 e analog tape machines to create loops that open up new pathways of improv
 isation\, allowing them to reimagine and layer their intuitive material in
 to meticulously crafted compositions.\n\nIt was all done in response to th
 e spaces they were originally engaged with\, and the use of a highly physi
 cal medium like analog tape deepens the spatial engagement of the trio’s
  work to striking\, playful\, and organically psychedelic effect. The resu
 ltant music has inexplicably broad appeal while maintaining a sort of myst
 erious outsider quality\, with a sense of place that is both magical and r
 ealistic. Johnson\, Kohl\, and Stewart have created a stunning album — a
 n exquisitely textured\, spatially vivid\, wordlessly expressive\, sonical
 ly multitudinous collection — that manages to decode high level concepts
  while clearly and directly speaking to the human impulse. BODY SOUND is r
 ight.\n\nBoletos: https://dice.fm/event/6dgo93-whitney-johnsonlia-kohlmaci
