SUMMARY:Mike Gangloff\, C Joynes
DESCRIPTION:Heretics Folk Club+ Sonido Polifonico Present: Mike Gangloff\, 
 C Joynes 21 May 2023.\nAn intimate evening of impov\, folk drone\, wonderm
 ent!\n\n\nMike Gangloff\nThe solo music of fiddler Mike Gangloff is "augme
 nted Appalachia\," Bill Meyer wrote in Magnet this year -- droney meditati
 ons that weave improvisation\, melodic composition\, and traditional airs.
  A founder of Pelt\, Black Twig Pickers and Eight Point Star\, Gangloff ha
 s begun performing unaccompanied sets with a hardanger-style violin equipp
 ed with sympathetic strings or an octave fiddle that shifts the sound down
  to cello territory. His newest releases are the album "Evening Measures\,
 " released at the end of last year by VHF Records\, and a 7-inch shared wi
 th New England guitarist Liam Grant that came out on the Sound-o-Mat label
  earlier this year. A collaboration with US exploratory guitar masters Elk
 horn is due out later this year.\n\n\n\nC.Joynes\nOver the last decade\, C
  Joynes has ploughed a singular furrow through solo guitar\, with a body o
 f work incorporating English folk-tunes alongside North &amp\; West Africa
 n music\, and lifting proto-minimalist and improvised techniques from the 
 European classical and avant-garde traditions.\n\nJoynes has released 10 a
 lbums to date\, including ‘Poor Boy On The Wire’ (2021)\, his first so
 lo album dedicated wholly to the electric guitar\; ‘The Borametz Tree’
  (2019)\, recorded with long-term fellow travellers Dead Rat Orchestra\; a
 nd ‘The Wild Wild Berry’\, a collaboration with singer Stephanie Hlado
 wski (fROOTS Editors Choice Album Of The Year 2012\, MOJO Top 5 Folk Album
 s 2012). He has played extensively across the UK\, Europe and the USA\, sh
 aring bills with performers including Shirley Collins\, Martin Carthy\, A 
 Hawk And A Hacksaw\, Marc Ribot\, Alasdair Roberts\, Richard Dawson\, Jack
  Rose\, Josephine Foster\, Sir Richard Bishop\, Six Organs Of Admittance a
 nd 75 Dollar Bill.\n\nShifting away from the electric guitar of his most r
 ecent solo activities\, he’s currently exploring the uses of an amplifie
 d archtop guitar\, exploiting the instrument’s potential for placing int
 ricate parlour music alongside overdriven garage blues throw-downs and the
  brittle ringing tones of free improvisation.\n\n“As much Conlon Nancarr
 ow and Ali Farka Toure as Blind Lemon Jefferson\, the compositional mind a
 t work here can take apparently disparate threads of modernism and ethnic 
 tradition and treat them as though they were all archaic blues styles lear
 nt from dusty 78s.”\n\nBRUCE RUSSELL\, THE WIRE\n\n“An inheritor to Da
 vy Graham\; a lone operator prone to unexpected collaborations\, with a re
 pertoire that crosses continents and timezones with consummate ease\, and 
 dashed off with a phenomenal\, yet lightly applied technique.”\n\nROB YO
 UNG\, THE WIRE\n\n\n\n
