The Santa Monica Public Library’s Soundwaves new music series welcomes experimental vocalist and sound artist Anna Homler Saturday October 7 at 3:30PM, in the Main Library’s Martin Luther King Jr. Auditorium at 601 Santa Monica Blvd.
Homler sings in several languages, mostly ones she has created, and makes sounds with an assortment of found objects and gadgets. She has been active as a musician and performance artist since the 1980s; the 2016 reissue of her 1983 debut album Breadwoman was celebrated by the Los Angeles Times, Pitchfork, The Wire, and other publications. She has worked steadily in the US and Europe, collaborating across media and genres. Notable recent LA appearances have included a pandemic video project for the 18th St. Arts Center and performances at Beyond Baroque, Highways, dublab’s Tonalism, and the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook.
For Soundwaves, Homler will improvise with Jorge Martin on electronics and Soundwaves coordinator Jeff Schwartz on bass.
