Stuart on Tectonics Glasgow

Stuart Braithwaite plays alongside Aidan Moffat and Icelandic cellist Hildur Guðnadóttir at Tectonics Glasgow on Saturday 11th May.

At the time of writing, these three artists have yet to be seen in the same room together. ‘There’s been some email exchanges and sharing of ideas,’ Braithwaite explains. ‘She’s a really great musician, so I’m excited about that.’ He remains uncertain as to exactly what shape their performance will take, but that’s all part of the fun. ‘It’s going to be at least partially improvised. At this stage I actually don’t have a clue what’s going to happen, which I find quite exciting.’

Mogwai 1997-11-08 Paris - video



Thanks to einzack for mentioning this on the forum - it's a familiar live recording as the show was radio-broadcast, but I'd never seen TV footage until today.
