Hangedup
Hangedup are an experimental rock duo from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, featuring Genevieve Heistek on Viola and Eric Craven on drums and percussion.[1] They combine viola with strong percussion, sometimes using self-made instruments, to create intense experimental post-rock music.[2]
History[]
Both Heistek and Craven performed with the band Sackville. Heistek was also part of , Set Fire to Flames, HṚṢṬA, and Land of Kush. Craven was associated with Shortwave, HṚṢṬA, and formerly Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band.[3]
In 1999 they came together to form Hangedup, and were signed in Montréal by Sackville's label, Constellation Records. Their first album, self-titled, was recorded at Hotel2Tango studios and released in 2001, and "Kicker in Tow" the next year. Clatter for Control came out in 2005.[4][5][2]
