Ariadne w/ The Peace Pipers, Nummo Twin & Lazy Bones
ARIADNE is an experimental sacred music and new media art duo whose work explores the intersection of mysticism, dream analysis and the failure of digital systems through a synthesis of music performance, digital and interactive art, poetry, and dramatic experience. Much of ARIADNE’s output consists of interactive audio/visual performances which employ custom built hardware and software, real-time 3D animation, and machine learning to create immersive and captivating experiences. ARIADNE’s body of work includes feature-length audio/visual albums, web-based virtual reality, and a/v installations.
ARIADNE’s work has been presented in prestigious venues, festivals, art galleries and universities all around United States.
Their latest album, “Stabat Mater” (on Auris Apothecary), heavily inspired by the visions of female Christian mystics Hildegard von Bingen and Teresa of Ávila, is a stunning example of post-modern music being made by bridging the worlds of ancient spiritualism with cold, borderline dystopian digital sounds of the future, has received enthusiastic reviews.
THE PEACE PIPERS are a Psychedelic Rock band from Manchester, England. A gang of five melodious misfits; this Hippie-Punk outfit, provides an honest feel through groove laden riffs, in an attempt to traverse the line between reality and insanity.
Having previously won ‘Hard Rock Cafe: Hard Rock Rising Manchester 2016,’ The Peace Pipers continue to offer high octane performances in outrageous attire. Their debut E.P., ‘Patterns,’ released March 2019, showcased their style with a hint of lysergic folk. Currently they are working through an extensive archive of original material, drafted over a decade of personal experiences.
Aiming to deliver live shows tailored to the varied tastes of the masses, their sound ranges from paisley sunshine-psych to demented stoner freak-beat. With more plans set for the forthcoming year, The Peace Pipers remain on their progression, providing a contribution to Manchester’s counter culture.
NUMMO TWIN is a profoundly daring artist from Manchester. Her new EP, ‘Passerby’, has been written and perfromed upon a unique instrument of her own creation, the ‘coniferle’. At turns dreamy, folky, abstract, troubling and troubled, Nummo Twin is absolutely one of Manchester’s rarest, most precious gems.
LAZY BONES Manchester’s veteran astral wanderer, his gentle melodies hide strange shadows, hidden yearnings and the promise of the transcendental.
