TALsounds with Bill MacKay & Michael Zerang

21+. 9pm.

Natalie Chami (TALsounds) is a Canadian-born Lebanese American musician and educator. Known for her work in drone, ambient, and improvisational music, she has cultivated a distinguished solo career over the past 14 years, crafting a distinctive blend of personal and transporting music. Her compositions seamlessly integrate synth work, operatic vocals, and meticulous atmosphere crafting. Chami has released albums on various labels, toured internationally, and earned acclaim for her significant contributions to the avant-garde electronic scene. Her upcoming third album, Shift, is a departure from her signature warm analog synth sound, embracing a crisper, digital palette. Notably, Chami collaborated with fellow Southwest Asian and North African (SWANA) women in the production, art, and photography for the album. Shift is slated for release on NNA Tapes on November 3, 2023.
