Grace Scheele is an unconventional harpist noted for her innovative take on experimental and ambient forms. She masterfully interweaves harp rumblings, cinematic drones, textural loops, and candid tape confessions into music that celebrates that liminal ‘in-between’; a place of question, blank existence, or wonder.
Scheele's 2023 album landings centres on the real and imagined experience of the Apollo 11 mission to the moon; wielding bowed harp, electronic fx, and sampling from speeches, newsreels, mission audio, and NASA's own interviews with those present at the historic newscast. Uniting <a href="spotify:artist:24KMaDNklCLuxhzamE6tmq" data-name="claire rousay">claire rousay</a>-esque sampling with the electroacoustic harp sensibilities of <a href="spotify:artist:38MKhZmMRHAZRz8LqtKIBw" data-name="Mary Lattimore">Mary Lattimore</a>, these seven tracks meld industrial noise into a cinematic arc. landings meditates on wonder, exploration, and leans into Star Trek's "to boldly go" in imagining that big beyond.
