Mosquito Farm began in 2022, an artist's band and collaboration between Maddie Banwell and Grace Black. Their performances utilize an array of collected or handmade instruments, props and devices - these can be mechanical, electronic or acoustic. Mechanisms are either designed from scratch, or mis-used and re-purposed consumer electronics like computer fans or bathroom extractors. These can interact with various more conventional instruments too.
Usually fully amplified, they move between musicality and noise, performance art and composition, making references to genres and styles, but never sitting firmly in one place. With drones, percussion and a variety of played strings they move between microtonal harmony and heavy distortion. Noisy, lively, sometimes messy, their work can seem on the verge of collapse.
