Grouper unveils UK/EU tour dates for Spring 2015
Grouper, AKA Liz Harris, has announced a run of European tour dates for Spring 2015. It includes a rare piano performance in Portugal, and a stop at London's St John at Hackney.
Speaking about Ruins - her latest LP on Kranky, which we gave 9/10 - Harris said:
"Ruins was made in Aljezur, Portugal in 2011 on a residency set up by Galeria Zé dos Bois. I recorded everything there except the last song, which I did at mother's house in 2004. Iʼm still surprised by what I wound up with. It was the first time Iʼd sat still for a few years; processed a lot of political anger and emotional garbage. Recorded pretty simply, with a portable 4-track, Sony stereo mic and an upright piano. When I wasnʼt recording songs I was hiking several miles to the beach. The path wound through the ruins of several old estates and a small village."
