About this concert
** Accessibility: the venue is in a basement down a flight of stairs **\nFOUNDLING\nFOUNDLING is an evolution of Erin Lang's musical projects 'Erin Lang & The Foundlings' and 'Feral & Stray'. These projects have been blessed with the creative input of a collective of incredibly talented collaborators. Most recently Marc Stebbing and Erin Lang have come together in Berlin, Germany, to produce the vastest and most detailed collection of songs for the new album titled 'Fault Lines'.\nWith its expansive soundscapes, lush choir vocals and string sections, deep bass and broad synths, it's indie art- pop through a dark lens. Sonically and lyrically Fault Lines traces the ridges of deep canyons and the depths of duality, explores fissures in reality and the geological time maps mirrored in our bodies..\nBoth Lang and Stebbing's symbiotic contributions play strong roles in the album which thematically delves into the nature of duality. In Fault Lines, Lang's intimate and dreamy sound, is met with Stebbing's strong alternative pop sensibility and tendencies to dark heavy bass and rich intricate chord choices.\nThe album features lush vocal layers, recalling 1930's film music, accompanied by orchestral strings by Kristina Koropecki (Agnes Obel) and John Corban. Alongside the thread of nostalgia lies the modernity of the album in the gritty sub basses and synths. This is accentuated by electronic artist David Georgos' (Locoto) contribution of additional synths and programming and influences of artists like Lykke Li, Fever Ray and Björk.\nThe more mellow side of Fault Lines is inspired by 70's RnB and the wistful soundscapes of Vincent Gallo and 'World of Echo' era Arthur Russell.\nwww.foundlingsounds.com\nwww.youtube.com/watch?v=FJjR6hFFtfw\nwww.youtube.com/watch?v=C3CT0AEmIFA\nwww.youtube.com/watch?v=6xDUSdvmdpk\nMEMUM\nMemum is the ambient project of David from Foundling.\nwww.youtube.com/watch?v=gum362X-FxE
