Attrition, Felix Lee + Ghostlore Of Britain

MATED PRESENTS: ATTRITION, FELIX LEE AND GHOSTLORE OF BRITAIN LIVE AT THE GREYHOUND

WITH DJ SETS FROM KATIE SHANNON, SIAM AND ENIOLU.

\---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

**ATTRITION** are pioneers in what has become known as darkwave. Formed in 1980 in Coventry, England, influenced by a mix of punk ideology and experimental art aesthetics, they emerged as part of the early '80's UK Industrial scene alongside contemporaries Coil, Test Department, Legendary Pink Dots, In The Nursery, Portion Control et al. Founder Martin Bowes has steered the band through a 42 year career.

**Felix Lee** is a versatile artist and musician out of Brixton, South London, who’s work explores themes of spirituality, madness, and thresholds.

His last album “Skullstepper” is a freeform narrative piece following an unnamed protagonist through a psychic awakening. Preacher inspired lyrics repeat like jagged mantras over a bed of wirey guitars, blown out dub bass and power electronics, invoking a world of distorted belief systems and home grown rituals.

**Ghostlore of Britain** is the duo of artists Kieron Livingstone and Sarah Rosamond Hartnett who make music, film and site specific performances. They utilise the methodology of dérive, traversing the landscape as an embodied pursuit from which they capture audio and visual field recordings. Their music hijacks the cultural connotations of folk, indie, drone, dub and dance music.

Presented by MATED.
