Artist: Grace Scheele
Song: [excerpt]
Recorded at Wenona Lodge (Track Could Bend #106), July 1, 2025.
Track Could Bend loves experiments and works-in-progress, so the fact that harpist Grace Scheele's set incorporated a newly-integrated camcorder's wayward behavior (shutting itself off every few minutes, requiring a reset to be integrated into the performance's activities) can be seen as a feature rather than a bug. In any case, that fit right in with the spirit of experimentation that saw her harp laying on its side on a table, being used as one sound source among an impressive collection of instructional and other cassettes along with chopsticks, pingpong balls and birthday candles.
You can check out the full set over on youtube:
[Grace Scheele has a couple less-experimental sets coming up, including an evening of Joanna Newsom songs alongside the Milk-Eyed Menders at The Tranzac on Wednesday, July 30th, and a free, outdoors afternoon show at the Spadina Museum on Sunday, August 17th. Track Could Bend is back at Wenona on Tuesday, August 5th, with sets from Poached Roses (Naomi McCarroll-Butler, styrofoamNosebleedPrincess and Mira Martin-Gray) and Tom Richards.]
