Gil.Barte & Lia Vial

Presentation of the first joint performance by Lia Vial & Gil.Barte, a brand new collaboration born out of an artistic encounter at the Braille Satellite Festival in Lithuania.

Lia Vial is an artist whose live performances explore delicate, minimalist, and solemn sound textures. On stage, she combines vocals, keyboard, and drum machine to create drawn-out, enveloping melodies that paint unique soundscapes, sometimes mysterious, sometimes moving.

Gil.Barte, an artist from the Lyon electronic and experimental scene, has been creating deeply immersive music for several years: his compositions fuse dub, techno, electro-acoustics, and modular sounds in dark, ritualistic, and hypnotic worlds. An artist on the Teenage Ménopause and Big Science labels, among others, he is the founder of KUMP and Meth. O.tapes and host of the Methodrone show on LYL Radio, he constantly explores new sound forms that defy categories and invite sensory experience.

Their project, still in development at the time of writing, promises original music—an experience that is still unpredictable and surprising, the result of the meeting of two sensitive worlds open to exploration.
