Clark Art Concert By Basic and Erica Dawn Lyle
 |
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — On Sunday June 9 at 5 pm, the Clark Art Institute presents the first of its four-part Music on the Moltz concert series with a performance by Basic.
Erica Dawn Lyle opens.
The free outdoor concert takes place on the Clark's Moltz Terrace at the Lunder Center at Stone Hill.
According to a press release:
Evocative of an imaginary electronic desert blues soundtrack, Basic is a new project of Philadelphia's Chris Forsyth (guitar), Nick Millevoi (guitar, drum machine), and Mikel Patrick Avery from Natural Information Society (percussion/electronics). Inspired by the aesthetics of American guitarist Robert Wolfe Quine and the Fred Maher record of the same name, Basic blends the raw energy of rock with the atmospheric depth of electronic experimentation.
Erica Dawn Lyle, a writer, experimental musician, curator, and cultural instigator, has recorded around thirty records with over seventeen bands, and in 2019 she joined Bikini Kill as their guitar player. Since 2017, she has co-hosted Brooklyn's Free Air Radio and helped run and coordinate programming at the experimental venue 7 Belvidere in Bushwick, Brooklyn.
The next Music on the Moltz Terrace concert is performed by Garcia Peoples, with Mountain Movers opening, on June 23.
For accessibility concerns, call 413 458 0524. Bring a picnic and your own seating. This concert is presented in collaboration with Belltower Records, North Adams, Massachusetts.
