Description
Fyear is a Montréal-based ensemble led by composer Jason Sharp and poet/writer Kaie Kellough that fuses spoken word into genre-bending compositions for electronics, two voices, two drummers, and processed saxophone, pedal steel guitar, and violins. Fyear incorporates drone, out-jazz, post-classical, ambient metal, avant-rock, and modular synthesis in a sonic and stylistic palette the opposite of collage or pastiche: the Fyear ensemble integrates a unique and unified sound/aesthetic while traversing adventurous and variegated terrain. Kelloughs poetic materiality conveys acute political-existential themes, alternating between declarative, meditative, and cut-up/semiotic manifestations. For fans of Saul Williams, Damon Locks, Shabazz Palaces, Zulu, Irreversible Entanglements, Matana Roberts.
