Molyneaux — “Sorrow”
Molyneaux presents her new album “Sorrow” at KET, accompanied by Alexis Efremidis on bass and Myrto Samolada on vocals. Influenced by the electronic underground scene of Athens, she writes melancholic melodies and airy vocals, creating soundscapes and words that converse with her experiences and the way they reconstruct the fluid present. The opening act is by Dimitra Kousteridou, researcher, composer and sound artist, in a set of improvised sound compositions with handmade instruments.
