HUMAN ORGANS AT MERZBARN


A Human Organs performance at the Kurt Schwitters Merzbarn in Elterwater. This is the first appearance of the Four Person line up, so left to right you'll see Neil Wade, Jo Wade, me, and Jamie McPhie..these two videos from Alex record two chunks of what may evolve into some sort of offgrid ritual trance thing, in which we were joined by Trombonist Carolyn Francis and the Lakeland Fiddlers, who played some great tunes outside the Merzbarn earlier in the day and at the church in the morning. . We've been wondering about wether / how to augment the organs, and this points a way or two.. there are some great moments here, thank you Carolyn and co, and thank you Ian and Celia from Littoral.
