GLOBAL | LOCAL MUSIC SERIES:

Half Waif (Chatham, NY) Album Release Show

with Elori Saxl (Ghent, NY)

Chatham-based singer, songwriter, and producer Nandi Rose, who records and performs internationally as Half Waif, premieres the songs from her new record, See You At The Maypole, released October 4th on ANTI- Records (Mavis Staples, Tom Waits, Fleet Foxes).

With the ability to “turn her voice into a choir” (The New York Times), Rose leads an eight-piece ensemble through this complex work, which grows out of her classical piano training towards pop songwriting styles with experimental electronic production and expansive arrangements. The songs—performed live for the first time at PS21—each feature their own choreographed movement, with lyrics that focus on themes of fertility, loss, motherhood, mortality, and the role of nature in healing.

Ghent-based experimental electronic composer Elori Saxl, whose music is “more serene than Steve Reich, more textured than Philip Glass” (Jayson Greene, Pitchfork), transforms the rich resonances of experimental electronics, digitally processed recordings of natural sounds, and traditional chamber music orchestration into hypnotic counterpoint.
