Crevice – improv electronic/ambient from Cork
What you may need to know…
01. Irene Buckley, Elaine Howley and Roslyn Steer are Crevice, a collective of electronic improv performers.
02. Each with a background in Irish independent & avant-garde music, the outfit specialises an atmospheric ambience. In their relatively short time together, they’ve come in for critical acclaim, winning the IndieCork Music Award in 2015.
03. Streaming above is Sludge Gore, a live take that forms part of their limited publicly-available output to date.
04. Performing next at Cork County Hall this Friday night for Culture Night, with Rory Francis O’Brien in support. Kickoff 8.30. Roslyn Steer also has a solo performance as part of TEDx CorkSalon’s #Cork Loves Music event, Wednesday night at Coughlan’s.
Verdict: By their nature difficult to discuss beyond vague descriptors and moods, Crevice are a compelling proposition, but must be experienced live to be fully understood.
bucky: just been tinkn, does our bio sound like an advert like?
rosser: nah, just hit 2 birds with de 1 stone like
“a collective of female electronic improv performers.” Not just performers but FEMALE ones as well woweee!
‘By their nature difficult to discuss beyond vague descriptors and moods’
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!1!
Would you ever jump up your own crevice
Sounds good. Ignore the three stooges above.
The song is grand. Not the pretentious oul wanque-speak of the press release though. See?
That all sounds very wanky.
It’s a pity those Black Sun gigs are no longer held in Cork. Crevice would fit in very well. I remember they put on a guy called Jean Louis Costes who ate his own faeces.
Uber-hipster Journal journo Aoife Barry wrote a fawning piece about Black Sun and its nasty confrontational ways
Hole, The Slits, Crevice….hmmmmm? I see a pattern.
