Totally Wired @ The Gregson - 21st May

Here's a sneak preview of a couple of acts at the next Totally Wired event.

Aht-n are a trio of improvisers who are inspired by such things as Krautrock and ambient trance. They are made up of Ian Simpson and Harry Gallimore from Warrington's Fonik and Shaun Blezard of Clutter



Clutter works with a mixture of found sounds/field recordings and traditional instruments to produce highly textured soundscapes which drift in and out of focus. Sometimes they float beautifully near dub and dance other times they rattle your head.

WIRED IN @the Dukes Gallery - Tomorrow!!



FREE EVENT!! Starts prompt at 7.00 p.m. in the Dukes Gallery, Lancaster.

A BLAST OF CULTURAL MAYHEM! - Music, Visuals, Drama, Comedy, Projections.. a great line up of Clutter, Leentje Van de Cruys, Aht-n & Fine Line Creative. TOTALLY WIRED at the Gregson Centre, Lancaster on Friday 21st May 2010 - Doors 8.00 p.m. Entry £4. Upstairs in the Olive Bar.





Leentje Van de Cruys

Leentje Van de Cruys will be performing a short spoken word drama piece entitled "Horse". Horse is about a woman who thinks she is a horse. But that's normal, because she is indeed a horse. The problem is she thinks she is a different horse than the horse she really is, a different horse from the horse you see in front of you. Based on a text by Dutch writer Esther Gerritsen, "Horse" explores cultural identity, foreigness and assimilation.

Photo of Steve Lewis from Deep Cabaret

Deep Cabaret featuring Steve Lewis will be joined by special guest Dave Camlin, Cumbrian voice maestro. They'll have met only that very afternoon to work on a completely improvised voice piece especially for Wired In. By special request Deep Cabaret will include some of his "experiential" work, or as Steve puts it "I work with uncertainty, imagination and making it up as you go along, to create music that will surprise, inspire and entertain."
