About this Event

Untouchable Production: Gwenifer Raymond and Christo Graham

Gwenifer Raymond's Last Night I Heard the Dog Star Bark marks her first release since 2020’s acclaimed Strange Lights Over Garth Mountain, which fused Mississippi blues, John Fahey-inspired Americana, and her South Welsh roots into a genre dubbed Welsh Primitive. Her latest work expands on this, drawing inspiration from pioneering rocket scientists, fictional hobo prophets, and mathematical infinity. Raymond continues to explore folk horror and the avant-garde, further evolving her distinctive sound and storytelling through intricate guitar work and imaginative conceptual frameworks.

Gwenifer began playing guitar at the age of eight shortly after having been first exposed to punk and grunge. After years of playing around the Welsh valleys in various punk outfits she began listening more to pre-war blues musicians as well as Appalachian folk players, eventually leading into the guitar players of the American Primitive genre. She has since been playing her own moody and often-times manic original American Primitive styled compositions on guitar and banjo around the UK and the US.  Since her first release on Tompkins Square in 2018, she has won many fans with her incredible dexterity and impressive finger picking.  

Christo Graham began writing his first songs when he was just 13. An old guitar and a Casio keyboard were all this lively singer-songwriter needed to fill summer after summer lovingly crafting demo tapes of the finest indietronica. His bedroom morphed into a recording studio, and Graham's head into an automaton that produced one quirky earworm after another. His effective minimalism is evident in his 2020 album 'Turnin'', whose 12 songs were inspired by a four-track recorder belonging to his grandmother and containing two songs recorded by herself at some point. A mystical experience for Graham, who more than lived up to his reputation as a passionately independent indie auteur. His latest album “Music For Horses”, released by We Are Busy Bodies in October 2024 was also created on a similarly mystical recorder. Recorded in a 115-year-old classroom, with reduced percussion and restrained guitar, these new songs by Christo Graham emanate an almost meditative contemplation. Music for a day in the woods, for reflecting on the past and the future. His next album, ‘Good Covers’ will be out in November, also through We Are Busy Bodies.
