Floodflower X Irwin | The Silo Room | Trip 13

During shore leave from band duties with pirate troubadour The White Buffalo, drummer Matt Lynott and bassist Christopher Hoffee joined forces with visual artist Peter Halasz to form Floodflower. A natural extension of Halasz’s brooding and eerily beautiful canvases, this goth power-trio channels Gorecki , Bauhaus, and Floyd to powerful effect. Balancing composition and improvisation, frenetic mayhem with wide open spaces and a poetic sensibility, their ethos is rooted in the live transmission. Harkening back to the world of atoms and the magic of corporeal experience, Floodflower is dowsing for signals from the old gods, enacting the ancient ceremonies. Reverb drenched guitar and big drums. Heavy bass and burnt vocals. Sonic apocalypse and transcendence in equal measure. Their sophomore release, Fall Into The Half Light, seems culled from beyond- garbled tongues half heard in the dim, apparitions glinting in the half light and gesturing in mute prognostication... The allure of Romanticism never fades, it finds new adherents… Like Shelley and Byron, each new generation sees the darkness in their reflection and is encouraged by its dramatic promise.

For over two decades Irwin has been doing highly acclaimed one-off live electronic music events throughout the United States, Europe and Japan. In line with his vision of being instrumental in the creation and design of proprietary custom hardware and software, performances are also highly tailored to each space, and moment. All sounds and beats are created live, in real-time.
Irwin is also lamentably known for not publicizing shows, selling things, or making material available. January 24th 2026 musical performance will be specific to The Silo's extremely resonant audio peaks and bizarre layout. If you want to experience this rare event, we suggest you be there early.

The Silo Room, experimental music space, located at Bread & Salt in Logan Heights. Enter in Alley.
