Seaming To is a London-based composer, multi-instrumentalist, and vocalist who draws from her roots in classical composition and jazz improvisation. Summoning up a psychedelic wonderland of alluring songs draped in pastoral string arrangements and playful synthesisers, Seaming sings with a siren’s call, inviting us to explore the visions, secrets and dreamscapes that lurk just beyond our view in the mirror.
Through performing in Paddy and Graham’s respective Homelife and Toolshed groups, Seaming became part of a deeply interwoven network of bands, producers and DJs that included Ninja Tune icons Mr Scruff and The Herbaliser, both of whom she recorded with.
“One of the most beautifully inscrutable records I’ve heard in years; a collagist evocation of my avant-pop musical memory in threads of Anohni, Björk, Evelyn Drach, Tactile Gemma, Tiny Hazard, Craig Wedren (et al)~~all winding into inspiriting, ethereal forms. Favorite track: Water Flows.”
