The fourth instalment in the ongoing Outlands tour will see Beatrice Dillon team up with Keith Harrison for a series of live gigs

Outlands, the event series bringing together a network of promoters of experimental music around the UK, will next year present a collaborative tour between Beatrice Dillon and Keith Harrison.

The tour will see the pair combine their talents for a series of one-off live shows with Harrison drawing upon his own practice as an artist and Dillon bringing into the fold her talents as a producer of commissioned computer-based works and music for labels such as Hessle Audio and The Trilogy Tapes.

Harrison describes the shows as "a live experiment in which our respective systems are set in motion, bending sound and material. We have an overall structure but have factored in a capacity to react to what's happening each night and change as the tour progresses and material accumulates."

Dillon continues: "I'm interested in creating a sense of a physical, tactile presence through sound, one that bumps into and spills over into Keith's sculptures. I'm excited by the messy physicality of this project, exploring different scale and spatial opportunities and responding to the different constraints of each site."

The tour will take place across multiple venues around the UK from February 7-15. You can find more information here.
