In her review of the latest Circuit des Yeux album, -io, Allison Hussey at Pitchfork concluded, "[Haley Fohr] cuts through the din, singing, almost bellowing, buoyed by a boundless ferocity rarely afforded to women in any other context. Her maxims demand attention with the same gravitational intensity as the cosmic imagery she invokes: 'Descend bold traveler and attain the center of the earth,' she intones at the end of the cycloning 'Neutron Star.' Though the song begins as a loping country ballad, Fohr races upward into a braid of fuzzed-out guitar and strings made fiery by flares of brass."
Local keyboardist Emili Earhart wil open the show. She will perform the second of two works written for the piano at ALL. Earhart composed and performed the first of the two in the Spring of 2023, utilizing the breadth of the space and instrument, as well as the physical extent of the performer.
