Skinny Dipping 06: Leila Bordreuil + special guests
Co-presented by Divided By Language, Pop Mutations & The Glad Cafe
Tuesday 7th July at The Glad Cafe
A French-American artist based in Brooklyn, Leila Bordreuil embraces the cello as a primary medium for crafting an intense music that moves fluidly between noise, contemporary composition, improvisation and drone, without anchoring itself to defined canons. Bordreuil challenges conventional approaches to her instrument and uses extreme amplification to summon torrents of noise, tense stillness and a melancholic aura that courses through her sonic flow. Her panoramic vision of form and genre is reflected in her diverse collaborations with artists including Laurel Halo, Lee Ranaldo, Tamio Shiraishi, Drew McDowall and Kali Malone.
