Luce Mawdsley

Expansively cinematic instrumentals conjuring queer cowboy landscapes via the Northern English coastline. Luce Mawdsley (they/them) is an autistic non-binary composer and guitarist based in Liverpool with a practice rooted in progressive experimentation. Drawing from a range of poetic art forms, their work uses personal experience of neurodivergence, mental health disorders and queerness as a ligature from which to generate subversive explorations of gender, sexuality, place and identity formation. Luce will be joined by Nicholas Branton on Clarinets and Michael Paul Metcalfe on drum set.
