The Books with Lymbyc Systym: Elevator 6
The Books are one of the most revered and influential instrumental acts of the last decade, weaving enigmatic narratives through interlocking melodic themes into what cannot be described as anything short of breathtaking. The band will be making a rare live appearance in an environment set up specially for the performance in our contemporary gallery space.
With a cut-and-paste musical aesthetic, The Books, a.k.a. Nick Zammuto and Paul de Jong, did not invent the audio collage, but they have perfected the idea of incorporating found sound into their music. The result is kind less-is-more future-fold, cliche-free and miraculously organic.
Openers Lymbyc Systym is an instrumental duo comprised of brothers Mike and Jared Bell. Hailing from Austin, Texas and Brooklyn, NY respectively, the pair began tinkering back in 2001, laboriously experimenting and completely hellbent on establishing something fresh and unique from deep beneath the indie canopy. The have most recently toured with Broken Social Scene and This Will Destroy You and are known as one of the most engaging live acts emerging today.
