Elephant! You shake your sheep is a bold new collaboration between France-based polymorphous artist-composer Annabelle Playe and young Glasgow-based musician and composer Harry Gorski-Brown.
Elephant! You shake your sheep explores the limits of bagpipes with the infinite possibilities of electronics, creating a wall of sound that weaves a unique narrative.
Combining the intensity of the bagpipes' distorted flows with electronics, the artists explore rhythmic tensions and invigorating textures through accumulation, decomposition and sonic immersion.
They are accompanied by Rima Ben Brahim on lighting.
