One Leg One Eye is the new solo project of Ian Lynch, founding member of the experimental folk group Lankum. With a sound rooted in the raw aesthetics of second wave black metal rather than contemporary folk, the project combines drones of distorted uilleann pipes, field recordings, tape loops, analogue synth, voice, and further instrumentation to shape minimalist and transportative pieces that resonate with an immersive sadness. The distinct and sometimes harrowing atmospheres conjured throughout his debut album, "…And Take The Black Worm With Me" are an exploration of internal and external spaces rooted in his hometown of Dublin. Lynch appears with the project for the very first time featuring guest visuals from acclaimed Berlin director Lukas Feigelfeld.

Jules Reidy uses processed and acoustic instruments to shape non-traditional song forms from unstable harmonic territories, rhythmic elasticity, and abstract narrative. Releases on Shelter Press, Black Truffle, and Editions Mego highlight an artist knowledgeable with microtonal experimentalism and abstract pop textures and open-ended harmonics which are wrapped into over-stretched, episodic song forms resonating with hazy delay. Reidy appears at CTM in support of their latest album "Trances", an exploration of the cyclical movements of grief and emotional turbulence through the sound of fingerpicked phrases, open strums, corrugated processing, and a heavy sense of the strange.
