Wayward Music Series: Lost Chocolate Lab & Possibly Possible

Somewhere tangled in the frequency-sheets of sound stands a lone guitar player; glaciers of distortion covering invisible mountains of sound with blankets of white noise atop towering peaks. Impossible to reconcile the enveloping sound from common six-stringed instrument; the full-on maelstrom barely representing the visible playback mechanism slung over-shoulder. Expectations submerged in an enveloping cloud of cacophony, dipped in a modulated acid-bath of signal processing and reverberation; sound emerging as a rippling pool of cascading sound-waves lapping on the shore of consciousness. Lost Chocolate Lab presents a set of solo guitar atmospheric improvisations that weave threads of the new Lost Landscapes album set against a projected backdrop of visuals created to accompany the release.

Possibly Possible is the Seattle-based duo of David Lu (guitar, synth) and Ian Curry (cello). They’ll perform ambient, shoegazy walls of sound alongside top-down videos of David’s hands folding paper. Ian is a cellist, folk musician, and designer. He hosts the Frontier Home music series in Beacon Hill. David is a paper artist, cartoonist, and designer. This is the duo’s first sonic collaboration, following over a decade working together on other creative projects.
