@samaralubelski playing violin “on a Tamalero’s bike in Mexico City during El Nicho 2015″, as posted by The Wire a couple of days ago.

BEST THING WE’VE SEEN ALL WEEK SO FAR! (hello @dustedandsocial)

Samara performs with Patrick Holmes tonight, Tuesday 5/10/16, at The Sump [1563 Decatur Street] in Ridgewood, Queens, NY, USA as part of INTERNAL/ETERNAL #1:

LOREN CONNORS + STEVE DALACHINSKY (sparse guitar and poetry)

PATRICK HOLMES + SAMARA LUBELSKI (spaced-out clarinet and violin improvisation)

DORA BLEU + TOM CARTER (dark, improvisational acid-folk)

The post at THE WIRE accompanying this video is pretty solid and expertly linked, so who are we to not copy and paste it? 

“Samara Lubelski is a singer, multi-instrumentalist, improvisor and engineer, who grew up in Soho, New York, She made her solo debut album In the Valley in 1997. This was followed by The Fleeting Skies (2004), Spectacular Of Passages (2005), Parallel Suns (2007), Future Slip (2009) Wavelength (2012), and String Cycle (2014).

Lubelski has also performed and recorded with numerous artists including New York trio Hall Of Fame, The Tower Recordings, MV & EE, and Thurston Moore, with whom she played violin on Trees Outside The Academy and Demolished Thoughts. Current projects include an improvisational duo with Marcia Bassett and a long-standing collaboration with German collective Metabolismus, with whom she recently released The Gilded Age on Drawing Room Records.

This video was filmed by Patrick Danse at last year's El Nicho festival in Mexico City, where Lubelski performed a solo improvised violin set and presented an audio-visual collaboration with Marcia Bassett and Barry Weisblat.

El Nicho 6 will take place at various venues in Mexico City from 11–15 May. Ricardo Pineda reviewed El Nicho 2015 event in The Wire 377. Subscribers to the magazine can read that via Exact Editions.”
