Tamalyn Miller performs GHOSTPIPE live with Irman Peck in the UK for the first time, with support from Nicholas Hann and Bird Radio

GHOST PIPE - UK PREMIERE

Tamalyn Miller with Irman Peck

Drawing on selections from her solo album Ghost Pipe, Tamalyn Miller leads with voice

and her handmade horsehair fiddle, joined by Irman Peck on cello to invoke the presence and mystery of beneficial and pernicious forces in nature. Together they summon a visionary soundscape that ranges from psychedelic folk to Victorian parlor, a disorienting unveiling of tales whispered by the woods.

“There is a subtle and rustic magick being conjured and at work here, with these tracks feeling like sigils made from leaves, twigs, and spider silk. Part sound journal, part sonic grimoire, part. transcripts of oneironomantic transmissions, and all a curious mystery.” —Hotel Kilo

Bird Radio

Bird Radio is the musical stage-name of London-based multi-instrumentalist, singer, and composer Mikey Kirkpatrick. Described by critics as "folk-horror of the darkest hue," Bird Radio combines a soaring vocal delivery with driving bass drum rhythms, double flutes and spellbinding, loop-pedal flute arrangements. Drawing inspiration from ancient folklore, poetry, and experimental theater, his performances are hypnotic, deeply theatrical rituals that blur the line between ancient storytelling and modern experimental folk.
