Watched Rae Morris at Hebden Bridge Trades on Sunday. Amazing solo set, only just 20 years old, a great talent.
Robin Guthrie live in concert. Magnificent!
He stood there on stage like a bearded avuncular teddy bear, alarmingly like John martyn. No Mic, just a guitar, a laptop and some footpedals and proceeded to summon the most amazing sounds I have ever heard. Using max reverb and echo, he built layer upon layer of gorgeous loops which ebbed and flowed like limpid pools of shimmering gold which could suddenly roar into titanic riffs....and yet he barely moved, one hand caressing the frets and the other delicately picking or strumming. Sometimes he let his hands fall from the instrument with a bemused look on his face whilst the chiming loops swirled and churned around him. For the finale he put his guitar down whilst his sonic castle slowly faded into the ether....and with a faintly embarrassed wave he departed the stage. A unique and wonderous performance.
Oh, and here's a link to an example of the mans work.
