Northwest friends, its been waaaaay too long! So excited the kind folks at artist-run Hollow Earth Radio have invited me up to play at their MAGMA festival this weekend!! Hope to catch up with you there. I’m going to be performing a set of some new material and a bit from the Glass Canyon LP.
The festival is going on for a few weeks and some other good friends including Chuck Johnson & Danny Paul Grody are joining in on other nights, so do check out the full lineup HERE
Also, a nice nod from the Seattle Stranger’s blurb about the show
“a strong bill headed by Oakland violinst Marielle V. Jakobsons (of the sublime raga-drone savants Date Palms) and Rafael Anton Irisarri (aka techno minimalist the Sight Below and a deft creator of impressionist ambient music under his own name). Jakobsons’s Glass Canyon album on Students of Decay was one of 2012’s most enveloping and engrossing drone-based works.”
