Whitechapel Art Gallery says…

Generally, Brits don't hear much about the vivacious experimental-ambient scene coming out of Portland, Oregon. It's a real shame, because the free-noise aesthetics pioneered by a host of bands including Jackie-O Motherfucker, Honey Owens, Strategy and tonight's band, Grouper, are spellbinding stuff. Grouper is Liz Harris, a daring songwriter who sculpts black-orchid-like delicacies from shuddering walls of snow, fuzz, distortion and loops. Look forward to a peek at Harris' new album, Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill, coming next spring on Type Records. Support comes from Nottingham-based fluid-sound minimalist Gareth Hardwick and drone duo Pausal.
