Mary Lattimore is a Los Angeles-based harpist. She experiments with effects through her Lyon and Healy Concert Grand pedal harp, concocting half-structured improvisations which can include both ambient glitter and unsettling noise. Her first solo record, the Withdrawing Room, was released on Desire Path Recordings in 2014. The solo recordings that followed, At the Dam and Collected Pieces, were released by Ghostly International.

Mary has also recorded synth + harp duo projects with Elysse Thebner Miller (And the Birds Flew Overhead) and Jeff Zeigler (Slant of Light) and has co-written reimagined scores for the 1968 experimental silent film Le Revelateur, directed by Philippe Garrel (who approved of the project), and the Czech New Wave classic Valerie and Her Week of Wonders, and performed these scores live throughout the US with Jeff Zeigler and the Valerie Project, respectively. She has contributed and written harp parts for such artists as Kurt Vile, Thurston Moore, Sharon Van Etten, Meg Baird, Steve Gunn, the Clientele, Hop Along, Jarvis Cocker, Karen Elson, Ed Askew and Quilt.

Ghostly International will release her third solo record in late spring of 2018.

Local Supporting Acts:

Eric Weidenhof - Multi-Instrumentalist / Cellist

Dubravka Bencic - Piano Musings and Narratives embellished by Chris Fazio’s violin, trumpet and piano improvisation.

“As music comes through me, my piano playing can be described:

The intuited sound, such as light, penetrating through the filmstrip of my mind and animating my hands across the keyboard — the melody is bourn! The interlace of fingers and piano keys creating an interpretive dance, resonating the songs of the great mystery unfolding. Here in each moment — becoming by unbecoming.”
