New York-based composer and producer Kelly Moran’s intricate, experimental pieces transcend the piano’s more traditional and classically-imposed school of thought. Her debut album ‘Bloodroot’ was so impressive that she got noticed by Oneohtrix Point Never and was asked to join his live band. On her forthcoming new album for Warp, Moran augments her pianistic abilities to superhuman levels in order to create a new strain of her singular experimental piano compositions. We will represent Kelly Moran for BeNeLux and have added the first shows.
