Liz Harris’ return to Christchurch precedes the release of the ‘Hold/Sick’ 7” on Brisbane Label, Room40 and her tours of Australia, Japan and South Korea. Since her last appearance in Christchurch in early 2009, Harris has recorded a split alongside Roy Montgomery – with her contribution toted by Pitchfork as ‘among her most focused and spellbinding to date’ – a side on Root Strata’s a capella 7” series, ‘Tsuki No Seika’ next to Type label’s Xela, and re-issued editions of her incredible, earlier works,’ Cover the Windows and the Walls’, ‘Wide’, and ‘Dragging A Dead Deer Up A Hill’. She has recently toured alongside Animal Collective in the US and played at All Tomorrow’s Parties’ ‘The Fans Strike Back!’ weekend alongside Devo, Beirut, M83, !!! and Lydia Lunch. Oriented around empyrean choral deltas, cyclical cassette scree, and endeared, zero-zero guitar straits, Grouper’s music is gorgeous on record, and transcendental live.
