Larkin Grimm
Daughter of art, Grimm is a peculiar minstrel of her own poetry who can play with cruelty and anger in her context of magic crafts and infinite possibilities. Flashing Dublin now and then with her quick passages in the past years she is charming audiences with her powerful presence and enchanting music of dulcimer and guitar.
Ropewalker
Looped piano music and a megaphone with interaction of some hypnotic visuals will be the language for the passers-by Ropewalkers and their provoking and imaginative storytelling.
Thinguma *jigSaw
Little Myth Epiphanymph (Martha Redivivus): mysterious multi-disciplinary artist, dealing with flute, the musical saw and various instruments. Redivivus is the duo's illustrator and a kaleidoscopic conceptualist.
The Severed Headmaster (Seth Horatio Buncombe): revolutionary poet, composer and performer, dealing mainly with vocals and Banjo. Buncombe is a poetic provocateur and a postmodern peasant.
This irresistible, revolutionary folk-duo will tickle your brain and nourish your heart. Two elusive, exeptional, pivotal personalities — cunningly spinning a web of flamboyant brouhahas within the idiom of their own device: charming, clever, generous, sinister splatterfolk.
Splatterfolk combines elements of traditional Irish/British/American folk with contemporary art music, and spices it up with lyrical and musical components usually associated with horrorfilms, experimental theatre and modernistic poetry. There is also an abundance of filmatic and popcultural references. It's the new revolution within the folk music - scene of today, and you will find no finer exponents of this subversive art than Thinguma*jigSaw. Sensual and subversive — that…s us!
