"Lucas is just captivating. It's incredible how they can flip the feeling of a room upside down and sonically there’s just no other sound like theirs" - ZACH HILL. - Death Grips.
"One moment you hear John Coltrane playing a volcano, the next you hear a string section being squeezed through a toothpaste tube" - David Rees - The New York Times.
Maverick improviser; Lucas ’Granpa’ Abela’s (formerly Justice Yeldham) singular journey performing on shards of broken glass is the stuff of legend. For over twenty years now they have relentlessly toured the globe, the glass evolving over that time from a means to create free-noise cacophonies into an incredibly versatile instrument producing organic outsider electronica. Played somewhat like a reed instrument, Abela vibrates the shards edge with their lips, producing both audio signal and control voltages. These feed a complex modular patch of parallel chains where the performance modulates itself to give the instrument the illusion of a ghostly accompaniment that together forms dense layers of anomalous music.
On 31st of October, Lucas Abela & Zach Hill released a collaborative album on Warp Records, "Bag of Max Bag of Cass".
Lucas will have merch including a limited amount of the new LP on the night.

Buffalo Club Supports:
Furchick
Furchick is a noise artist and maker of useless contraptions. She has been at this music thing since before you were born and doesn't plan on stopping soon. She started out making experimental music in New Zealand in 1987, then in New York, and Perth since 2000. She has toured the world and got some awards a couple of times that she stores amongst her record collection. She says the highlights of her life have been performing at Jogja Noise Fest in Indonesia, playing with the Laundry Room Squelchers, playing in a Church crypt, recording in an actual WW2 bunker and generally having a wild time meeting other noise artists on tour. Furchick runs Dog Park Records and at the risk of writing a book and name dropping, that's all she is going to tell us.
