PRESENTED BY THE SUBSTATION AND ROOM40


New York based artist Lea Bertucci has created a profound and personal universe of sound stemming from her interests in sonic mass, harmony and texture. Her recent album, A Visible Length Of Light, sought to juxtapose her skills as a wind instrument performer against a mesh of tape noise, extended drone approaches and a tidal waves of bass frequency. Similarly, her live performances share these interests, dwelling in an utterly dynamic and intense sonic realm.

Joining Bertucci is Sia Ahmad who performs under the name Shoeb Ahmad. Creating a deft sonic language shaped equally through intense improvisational strategies and her interest in song form, Sia’s work is aesthetically divergent, but united under her unique sense of relational sonics. She creates a seamless web of sound from tangential strings.
