Mount Eerie + FREDA D’SOUZA

Tue 13 June, 19:30
£18 + BF

Upset The Rhythm presents

Mount Eerie, a musical project of American songwriter and producer Phil Elverum. Supported by Freda D’Souza.

Phil Elverum is an artist from the Pacific Northwest town of Anacortes. His recordings, released variously as The Microphones and Mount Eerie, represent just a portion of his artistic output, which has ranged from running a label and co-organizing festivals to self-publishing books, photography, and painting. But it is for his stunningly original music that he is known best, from the earliest tape experiments of the ’90s to the immersive sound-diary of Microphones in 2020.

Elverum has never shied from exploring the high mountain passes, finding new ways to sculpt with sound, and trying to communicate the momentary experience of being human as clearly as the water from freshly melted snow.

The concert will have unreserved seating/standing areas. Seating is available on a first come, first served basis.

FREDA D’SOUZA is an artist who contentedly creates at snail’s pace. Her world is small; simplicity reveals detail and, in turn, detail reveals infinity. Her songs place the unspeakable intensity of love and life within a warm and shimmering sonic world, filled with layered vocals, lush strings and dynamic arrangements. Out June 2023, her debut EP Windowledge explores the trials of intimacy and the value of introspection and forging space for reflection. Freda cherishes space. In space, there is tenderness.
