eugene chadbourne (usa)

Starting out playing rock and roll guitar, Chadbourne quickly grew bored with the form's conventions, going on to study the blues, country, bluegrass, free jazz, and noise before synthesizing those heterogeneous influences into a unique style of his own. 

“one of the underground community's most well-known and well-regarded eccentrics.” All Music Guide

Chadbourne fronted Shockabilly (1982–1985) with Mark Kramer (bass/organ) and David Licht (drums) and has worked with numerous artists including John Zorn, Fred Frith, Derek Bailey, Han Bennink, Carla Bley Band, Paul Lovens, Toshinori Kondo, Kommissar Hjuler und Frau, Camper Van Beethoven, Jello Biafra, Turbonegro, They Might Be Giants, Sun City Girls, Violent Femmes, Aki Takase, Walter Daniels, Kevin Blechdom, Biff Blumfumgagnge, Zu and Jimmy Carl Black. 

L (GLASGOW / dissociative noise rock)

L - L are “probably the most magnetic, outrageous, crazed, dadaist, inventive group in Glasgow.”* and My Sister’s Baby was L's third release following "Marilyn Monroe - All of Us" on Radical Documents. The tape was born by immaculate conception: GLARC released this tape without listening to it. Eoin Anderson reviewed it without listening to it. L wrote and recorded their parts individually and assembled it - without listening to it. It was mixed, mastered and messed up by eyeball and sent to tapeline - without anyone listening to it. On the 24th of October 2025- underneath the M8 - L listened and played it - for the first time. Named as one of the best cassettes of 2025 by The Quietus, they described it as "wild and chaotic, yet whether through kismet, fluke or clairvoyance it never sounds disjointed". Seasoned from a recent European tour, they will bring joy and chaos.
