Lucas ‘Granpa’ Abela’s (fka Justice Yeldham) performances on their signature instrument; shards of amplified glass are the stuff of legend. Their singular practice spawned from the noise music underground, where over twenty years the instrument evolved from a means to create ecstatic free-noise cacophonies into some kind of outsider instrument that produces organically improvised electronica. Abela vibrates the pane vocally to control a modular patch, that uses no traditional syntheses techniques, the glass acting as both sound and modulation source. The patch then extracts control voltages from the dynamics and frequency to modulate itself in synchronicity with the performance shaping six parallel stereo effects chains that merge into dense layers of anomalous music.The Grey Nomad Tour comes after the release of Abela’s latest album, Bag of Max Bag of Cass (Warp Records) a collaboration with Death Grips drummer Zach Hill. The album explores interpolating two musicians, similarly to Abela’s solo performances with Zach instead being converted into CV to alter Abela’s glass signal as they perform. Limited copies of the now Sold Out LP will be available at the shows.
Granpa will be joined by Sorrycop (Magandjin), Black Metal 3, Manticora
