Ex-Easter Island Head are a Liverpool, UK based ensemble, composing and performing music for solid-body electric guitar, percussion and other instruments.
Their music uses repetition, percussive processes, resonance and amplification with multiple electric guitars to create a sound that draws on minimalism, drone music, ambient sound and process music.
As equally austere as it is sonically dense, the music of Ex-Easter Island Head is immersive and organic. Rich in overtones, celestial drones and chattering lattices of percussion; an ever-changing surface over an unmoving center.
Their debut recording, Mallet Guitars One, is available now from Nottingham-based Low Point records; www.Low-Point.com
Ex-Easter Island Head have shared a stage with the likes of Portico Quartet, Mugstar, Philip Jeck and Rhys Chatham.
