    Ok, please post all links to gigs and events here. Please keep to the following format:
    Name of event

    Date of event and venue

    Price (if known)

    Link to information online

    Link to a thread in Gigs/Events (for discussion of the gig)

    Please don't discuss the shows in this thread, make a thread in Gigs/Events for the show and just link to it here. The Gigs/Events forum is there for discussing all live shows, this forum is for the music in general. This thread is just a resource to keep us all updated. With a thread for discussion in Gigs/Events, more people will see it and might be interested. Having the link here means that people who check only this forum won't miss news of the event.

    Hmmm, this post could be clearer but that's another day's work. Now, what gigs are coming up?

    Edit by cornbb:
    A lot of people are posting about gigs that are either not experimental by any definition, or are also spammed over numerous other forums. Such posts will be deleted and serial spammers may earn a ban.

    Short notice, its already been mentioned elsewhere, & it clashes with Mono in the Hub, but its worth a reminder -


    KK NULL (Zeni Geva, Absolute Null Punkt, etc) has been invited to perform at Daghdha Church in Limerick & the Project Arts Centre in Dublin. This is NULL's first visit and concert in Ireland.


    ==== KK NULL : concerts & workshop ====

    Tue, 31 Oct @ DAGHDHA CHURCH : St. John's Square Limerick
    5:00pm - KK NULL : talk
    8:00pm - KK NULL : concert / support by ROBIN PARMAR

    Sat, 04 Nov @ PROJECT ARTS CENTRE : 39 East Essex Street Temple Bar Dublin 2
    8:30pm - KK NULL / support by JURGEN SIMPSON and TIM REDFERN
    Tickets €15 / €10



    KK Null (Tokyo) is one of the top names in Japanese music and in a larger context, one of the great cult artists in experimental music since the early 80s. Mastermind of ZENI GEVA, collaborators include John Zorn, Zbigniew Karkowski, Jim O'Rourke, James Plotkin, Z'ev, Daniel Menche, Keiji Haino and Merzbow. His first Irish concert is supported by video artist Tim Redfern, and live electronics by composer Jürgen Simpson whose collaborators include Michael Nyman, Kevin Volans and The Jimmy Cake.

    http://www.kknull.com/engnews.html
    http://www.project.ie/cgi-bin/eventdetail.pl?id=520


    This looks to be a collaboration between Null, Simpson & Redfern rather than a solo Null set, but it should be a good night of experimental sounds either way.

    Hi Folks - we've been running an electronic/experimental music night for the last three weeks in De Burgo's in Galway City. The outlay is usually a main act of electronic persuasion, with support acts of varying electronicity and a live improv session. The last two weeks, the live improv sesssion has been at the end, where the players join the main act for a crazy hectic jam. Everyone's welcome to the jam, and it's free in for participants. We encourage non-standard-rock-band instruments, and the range so far has been drums, guitars, synths, laptops, decks, samplers, drum machines, lap steel, voice, electro-glock and electro-bodhran.

    These are this week's details:

    Red Potato (Berlin/Mayo) - loose acoustic meets looser laptop
    Jimmy the Hideous Penguin
    Cian "Derek" Mooney
    The Bluff Improv Players (Now Hiring!Just bring your instrument!)
    Local Living DJs

    9pm-12.30pm, e3 with all over the top of PA cost going to SVP.

    It's going to be running all through February also, with some odd and interesting things lined up that I'm not certain enough of to discuss just yet - there'll be world premieres of new Irish material, there'll be Galway/Ireland premieres of world experimental material and hopefully loads of great acts and great jams. Hope to see ye there!!

    "Miriam Ingram
    In the mid-1990s Miriam Ingram, along with Naimee Coleman, was a member of Les Keye's Wilde Oscars. After numerous gigs and a debut album, 'Fish,' that sold 20,000 copies in Ireland, Denmark and Japan, the Wilde Oscars came to an end in 1997. Since then Ingram's vocals have graced many an album by Irish artists, including The Harvest Ministers, Nick Kelly, Gráda and Dr Millar.

    Ingram combines her self-penned songs with instrumental arrangements, creating a colourful and melodic soundscape. She recently recorded her debut album, 'Trampoline', in Dublin, Kerry and France with a variety of musicians and engineers. She has just finished mixing it with David Odlum, Joe Chester and Owen Drumm and it is due for release in the near future.

    Ingram's live line-up is a blend of electronica and acoustic elements, with instruments that include bass, cello, trumpet, lap-tops, guitars, keys and drums and other vocals. Something a little different to look forward to."

    - blurb from Miriam Ingram's performance on RTE's Other Voices .
    http://www.rte.ie/tv/othervoices/miriamingram.html





    Sunday Tribune (CD of the week):

    Miriam Ingram's elegant and unique debut album, "Trampoline", was released in Ireland a few months ago. Here is an album that is both delicate and bold. Trampoline engages with the darker realms of life and love and curiously explores the world of dreams and sensuality. There are melodies you can taste, beats you can feel travelling over your skin. The songs themselves induce the scent of sunny wintry days, smoke-filled bars and industrious architecture. Whilst being thrillingly modern, it also possesses the warmth of classic songwriting. Both the album itself and its live presentation are underlined by innovative sonic orchestration - organic and electronic elements entwine and beget something a little different.

    Trampoline deserves to be ranked amongst the most interesting and challenging records released in Ireland this year

    As well as an opportunity for audiences to hear the very latest in new music by the newest talent, there will be time for discussion during each programme and at intervals throughout the day. The showcase offers young composers from universities around Ireland, north and south, the chance to meet up and network.

    The performance takes place at the Aula Maxima, University College Cork on Saturday, 14 April 2007 from 2.00 to 6.00 pm. Admission is free for all events. Further information: Aoife Fitzpatrick, Administrative Assistant, 01 673 1922 or email afitzpatrick@cmc.ie.

    "Seneca




    SENECA formed in mid 2005 in Limerick City and quickly put together a number of songs which resulted in a five track demo, recorded at Monolith Studios with engineer Mark Gavin, It was then mastered by Aidan Foley at Masterlabs. On their first live performance, SENECA actually won the Limerick heat of the Jack Daniels 'Hardest Working Band' Competition. Hotpress commented on SENECA'S live performance as mixing "Doves-y waves of sound with the perpetual motion of Arcade Fire". 2007 is already becoming an excellent year for SENECA with them having opened shows for 'THE REPUBLIC OF LOOSE' and 'DIRECTOR' as well as having one song ('So Beautiful') from their forthcoming album placed on the Ceol '07 album that was launched in March and which includes songs from Bell x1, The Corr's and many more popular Irish acts.

    The Infomatics
    www.myspace.com/theinfomatics

    "Their revolutionary take on music is without boundaries, effortlessly fusing hip-hop, electronica, soul, jazz and reggae to create a completely original and unique sound; not only innovators in the studio, their groundbreaking performances whilst sharing the stage with acts like NaS, Ice T, ?uestlove and Soul II Soul confirm their bright future."

    Chequerboard
    www.myspace.com/chequerboardmusic

    Chequerboard is guitarist and producer John Lambert from Dublin. In the past he has played with The Books, Fennesz, Mike Patton, Susumu Yokota, Murcof and Jimi Tenor. Chequerboard has also performed at the Electric Picnic a number of times and at the Mór festival as well. As the 2007 Model Music Fellow, John has been living and working from the Model in Sligo for the past few months. As part of his fellowship he was asked to curate a concert with an international musician that he would most like to perform with. He chose Mexican musician Fernando Corona who, as Murcof, sets about experimenting with electronic and classical music in their more minimalist expressions (check out his amazing work on the Leaf Label). They performed together in Sligo very recently. We're very much looking forward to hearing John's glorious guitar soundscapes at the launch shows.


    Larkin Grimm
    www.myspace.com/larkingrimm

    Larkin Grimm is a former member of The Dirty Projectors.
    She has shared bills with Devendra Banhart, Spires that in the Sunset Rise, Espers, Mi and Lau and Brightblack Morning Light.

    She grew up in the foothills of the Appalachians with a family of singers and fiddle players. Harpoon reflects these rustic influences through a modern psychedelic filter. Her voice is aligned with that of Linda Perhacs and Buffy Saint Marie. Her instrumentation includes dulcimer, pennywhistle, bells, drums and guitar.

    Michael Gira says, "Larkin is a magic woman. She lives in the mountains in north Georgia. She collects bones, smooth stones, and she casts spells. She worships the moon. She is very beautiful, and her voice is like the passionate cry of a beast heard echoing across the mountains just after a tremendous thunder storm, when the air is alive with electricity. I don't consider her folk though - she is pre folk, even pre- music. She is the sound of the eternal mother and the wrath of all women. She goes barefoot everywhere, and her feet are leathery and filthy. She wears jewels, glitter, and glistening insects in her hair. She's great! We're doing a record together soon for YGR. " Young God Records

    Mary Anne left school at the age of 16 and went to work in an egg packing factory for the princely sum of £39 per week.

    She quickly ran away to London with a hard rock band and lived on a bus with them in a car park in Hayes, Middlesex for 12 months, working as their lighting engineer, record sleeve artist, wardrobe designer… and mechanic.

    Her great ambition was to become a music journalist. She figured the next logical step would be to produce her own fanzine - Krush.

    She sent a couple of issues along with a demented CV detailing her adventures to the Editor of Sounds music paper and landed a job with them at the age of 19.

    At 21, having been profoundly influenced by a snapshot of Metallica, Mary Anne sold all her worldly goods and bought a one-way ticket to Hollywood, where she lived in a garden shed.

    She spent a year as Sounds US correspondent in the dark underbelly of LA writing about the fledgling thrash metal scene, Jane's Addiction, Guns N' Roses et al.

    At Sounds Mary Anne met fellow teenager James Brown (legendary writer and publisher, not the Godfather of soul) who became a lifelong friend.

    James moved to NME as Features Editor and when Mary Anne returned to London from LA, he promptly poached her to work with him at NME. Mary Anne spent three years on the newsdesk and also worked as a major feature writer there, authoring cover stories on everyone from Ice Cube to Nirvana.

    She went on with James Brown to form part of the original team he put together to launch Loaded magazine. She worked there as Music Editor, and writing major undercover stories about private detectives, cocaine dealers to the stars and most notoriously a Soho sex club.

    Mary Anne got her break in radio at BBC GLR on Sunday mornings alongside Mark Lamarr.

    She presented groundbreaking shows on XFM during their trail broadcasts, which helped to win their licence.

    She was poached by Radio 1 in 1997 after a particularly confrontational interview with Radio 1's then Head Of Production (Trevor Dann) was bootlegged around the BBC and found the desk of the Controller of the day, Matthew Bannister.

    Mary Anne's time at Radio 1 has been hectic… she has hosted shows from all the major award ceremonies: Q, NME, Brits, Kerrang, Mercury Music Prize… and made documentaries about artists as diverse as David Bowie and The Sex Pistols…
    She championed comedy god Ricky Gervais in his pre-Office days… hosted a movie review show with Mark Kermode called Cling Film… founded and fronted the award-winning Radio 1 Rock Show for five years.

    TV... there's quite a lot, M.A. hosted live coverage of the 'World Superbike Championship' for British Eurosport… she made a series about global biker culture in India, Russia, Japan, the US and Europe for BBC Choice,'Mary Anne's Bikes'… fronted 27 hours of live coverage at Glastonbury Festival for the BBC… and has guested on everything from BBC2's 'Never Mind The Buzzcocks' to 'John Peel's Record Box' for Channel4.

    Mary Anne can ride any motorcycle you care to park in front of her too... Her current bike is the gorgeous Kawasaki ER-6n…

    She released her first compilation album of dark underground dubstep, grime, dark dancefloor, drum & bass and techno, the critically lauded 'Mary Anne Hobbs Warrior Dubz' in October 2006 on Planet Mu label.

    Sunburned Hand Of The Man (USA/Ecstatic Peace Records)
    Live at Underground@Baker Place, Limerick
    Wednesday 25th June.
    €8

    Organised Chaos are proud to present the legendary Sunburned Hand Of
    The Man who will play Underground@Baker Place, Tait Square, Limerick
    on Wednesday June 27st 2008. Tickets for the gig are €8. Support will
    come from Special Guest to be announced very soon.

    SHOTM return to the UK and Ireland in June for a tour where they play
    all forms of venues in all shapes and sizes. After playing London show
    in April with Four Tet and Kode 9, in June they play the Venn
    Festival, perform a play at the ICA and do some special sideshow
    projects shows. They move around, metamorphosis, time travel and play
    in their own special way. Live they exist between chaos and clariy -
    their's is a vast sound. Be it African beat, Svengali hisses, fried
    rock n roll, elastic funk, electronic manipulations, sound clips,
    drone, Euro-trance, etc it is a total in the moment live experience

    MORE INFO:
    This band of brothers/sisters follow no rules. They honestly and
    strangely do there own thing, call it improvisation, free spirit,
    contrariness..too little time and too many ideas. Like their recorded
    output at any point spoken word, noise rock, odd ambiance's can be
    filtered through their combined and multifarious mindset and suddenly
    they push up the rhythm section, mask come out, it all sticks together
    and it all becomes deranged – maybe sounding like the Bomb Squad
    re-mixing a 23 Skidoo/Gong show. The house then will shake to their
    sound. This ability to surprise, to groove, to play weird and
    wonderful endears them to a legion of ever-swelling fans. The
    mutantability also enables them to play such a broad range of shows in
    different guises, with duplicitous approaches. Welcome to the wide
    open church of SHOTM.

    "Sunburned Hand of the Man has been an a wild and weird psych
    collective (I don't even want to classify them as anything as they
    defy all generalizations and genre peggings) since its inception in
    Charlestown, Massachusettes way back in 1996. A collective in the most
    literal sense: the lineup changes, goes through phases; they used to
    be holed up a Charlestown loft that saw members and contributors come
    in and out on a regular and frequent basis; none of their releases
    have been expected or planned terribly far in advance ... they just
    sort of wax and wane like the moon.

    In their tenure as a group, Sunburned has played with a plethora of
    heavyweights -- from Sonic Youth to Mission of Burma to Dinosaur Jr.
    -- as well as a myriad other bands, from Magik Markers to Sunn O))) to
    Wolf Eyes. To say the least, Sunburned has been around, paid its dues,
    collaborated with the best of 'em, the juniors and the seniors alike."

    SHOTM play a social and informal music, unshaped, unstructured, but
    completely determined by our immediate culture. While summoning up
    their music on stage it seems to take shape with sounds and patterns
    the reflect the myriad of influences that the ever-changing Sunburned
    collective are riffing on at that very vital moment.
