Rattle / Kalkin

Event information

Rattle

Rattle is a duo formed in Nottingham, comprised of Katharine Eira Brown & Theresa Wrigley. They released their third album ‘Encircle’ on Upset The Rhythm at the start of the 2025. ‘Encircle’ sees the drumming duo expand their unique experiments in rhythm, metre and tension. Rattle have honed the four songs that make up ‘Encircle’ by playing them live over the last few years, adapting and stretching them into endlessly inventive new shapes, playing with the concept of time and expectation. With ‘Encircle’ Rattle have grown, writing songs alive with elemental power. They build-up and disintegrate, existing in two places at once, embracing the nuance, tracing the circle’s edge. These are modes of song as pure gesture and eternal imagination, refined in mirrors after midnight. Rattle have toured the UK with Animal Collective and Thurston Moore and toured Europe with The Julie Ruin and Protomartyr, and have also performed with Hot Snakes, Bill Orcutt Quartet and Codeine
