The Greene Space at WNYC & WQXR | Soundcheck, Live: Emily Wells @GreeneSpaceNY | Uploaded January 2022 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Polymathic composer, producer, and video artist @EmilyWellsThesisAndInstinct will perform new works off her latest album Regards to the End, out February 25. On it she explores the AIDS crisis, climate change, and her lived experience—as a queer musician from a long line of preachers, watching the world burn—in immaculately layered yet spare songs that impel the listener to be attuned, acting like a magnet on our attention. Wells, a multi-instrumentalist who comes from a classical background in violin, builds the songs from deliberate strata of vocals, synths, drums, piano, string instruments (violin, cello, bass), and wind instruments (clarinet, flute, French horn).
This event is produced with Soundcheck and hosted by John Schaefer. Genre-neutral and open-eared, Soundcheck is the @NewSoundsMusic podcast where artists perform and talk about their work, their process, and themselves.
