Laurie Tompkins is a composer, curator, and writer. He performs playful, erratic music for instruments and electronics from bases in Berlin and the UK. Since 2014’s Handy, where he reimagined hillbilly banjo music with guitarist David Bainbridge from within a portable, battery-powered light installation by Dori Deng, he increasingly performs in his own work. Laurie has squealed his way through disruptive, desperate pieces at London’s Cafe Oto, Aarhus’ Radar, and regularly in smaller venues in Berlin and Manchester. Alongside regular collaborations and international engagements, he codirects the experimental imprint Slip.
