Annie Leeth
A recent graduate of the Hugh Hodgson School of Music, as well as local recording engineer and composer, Annie Leeth blends electronic work and contemporary classical violin into luscious swirling soundscapes. Leeth produces patient textural compositions that stretch and swell, wrapping the listener in a warm transient embrace. You will feel quenched, this is a sensory experience akin to the taste of bright citrus during a humid southern summer’s day or conversations between insects at high noon hidden in the tall grass.
Peter Webb
Peter Webb, of Faun and a Pan Flute and Hello Ocho, is a multi-instrumentalist particularly adept at crafting warm acoustics that invite the listener into a tender experience of evocative emotional vulnerability. These are soundtracks to sunrise, musical equivalences of a handmade quilt draped around one’s shoulders or the first sip of warm coffee during a morning drive through mountain fog.
Alec Livaditis
Former Athenian Alec Livaditis, now living and working in Atlanta, Georgia, is an experimental cellist and noise artist with a drive for pushing the boundaries of musical performance expectations and a power for speaking volumes through minimalist approaches. Livaditis provides suggestions of shapes evolving and transforming through negative space and improvisational explorations in texture and geometry.
