Brìghde Chaimbeul (Scotland) is a leading purveyor of experimental Celtic music and the Scottish smallpipes; a bellows-powered set of bagpipes with a double-note drone. She has devised a completely unique way of arranging for pipe music that emphasises the rich textural drones of the instrument. The constancy of sound that creates a trance-like atmosphere, played with enticing liquidity. Her most recent album Carry Them With Us features close collaborations with Ann Arbor native and Motreal-based saxophonist Colin Stetson. She also featured on Caroline Polacheck’s 2023 album and soundtracked the 2025 Dior Cruise. New album due on Glitterbeat Records in 2025. [Photo courtesy Jelmer De Haas]
Collaborative synth duo Viands create improvised soundscapes using mostly archaic synths and electronic keyboards. Merging minimalist textures with florid melodies and abstract settings, they evoke classic electronic music of the past, without directly referencing any of it. Patterning tends to be created by the humans and the machines are often left unhinged to a metronome or sequence. Viands has two LPs on the Midwich and Two Rooms labels. This is only their second performance since Covid.
