Sensoria Film & Music Festival, Laurie Anderson

[Herbidacious 10]

Credit were its due, Sensoria the Sheffield music and film festival has got Laurie Anderson with a gig and a talk on her music and art the day before.

 

I am a big fan and hope its well supported. As artist she used multi-media, back projection, tape bow violins and other electronic devices years before these things became common.

 

Her voice is amazing, with a mixture of music and stories(she has recorded with Peter Gabriel, Lou Reed to whom she is married and a string of other musicians). Laurie Anderson is one of the foremost observers of modern American culture and a unique talent.

 

The talk is this Friday 20th at the Upper Chapel on Norfolk Street @ 7.30pm, and the gig at Sheffield City Hall on Saturday 21st @ 8pm.
