Tuesday, October 21, 7 PM Charmaine Lee with Subhymnal and Justin Greene

Charmaine Lee is an Australian vocalist based in New York, who uses voice, feedback, and live processing--primarily concerned with risk-taking, playfulness, and improvisation. 

Subhymnal is an experimental, no-wave, artist known for producing intense, raw, and sometimes chaotic "soundscapes."

Justin Greene is an improviser, composer, and interpreter who explores queerness, memory, and grief through abstractions of sounds to their independent elements.
