Sound
Ex-Easter Island Head
Body and Head music for prepared electric guitar, percussion and other instruments.Programmtext
A concert by this quartet from Liverpool begins in almost complete silence. First they listen, then they play – and how! Suddenly, you are transported to a veritable sound workshop: prepared guitars laid flat on keyboard stands are tapped for percussive effects, while vibration motors removed from smartphones crawl across strings and sampled voices feed through pickups, prompting immediate responses from the guitars. Ex-Easter Island Head craft intricate narratives that guide us through their mesmerizing harmonic worlds.
