Join us for an evening of music and conversation, with Chinese indie music artist, Baishui.
Born in a small Sichuanese city, Baishui is a composer and self-taught musician who plays guitar, piano, and many traditional Chinese instruments. His earliest original compositions and performances were influenced by European neo-folk and dark ambient strains, but has expanded widely his musical canvas since. With neo-folk project Bloody Woods, experiment-in-randomness One Day in a Quark and under his own name, Baishui has been crafting intelligent and creative music across many genres, with musical inputs ranging from traditional Sichuanese folk ballads to 70s prog rock, atmospheric post-rock and beyond.
His latest album, City of Lost (2012), is built on a progressive-rock texture and with Eastern musical themes spanning beyond his native China into India and the Middle East. To take a listen to Baishui’s music, please visit: http://baishui.bandcamp.com/
