OBELOINKMENT WRIGGLESWORTH
Obeloinkment's show is different each time. Much different. Using a room full of odd acoustic instruments and percussion, Obe weaves a strange sonic tapestry that shifts through genres, styles, and states of mind. Using a looping sampler, he loops parts all live (there are NEVER prerecorded parts in the show) in a way that you'll have to hear to believe.
Sometimes the show is just acoustic guitar and vocals, other times patchwork instruments, beatboxing and pots and pans create a sort of organic electronica. Add a late 70's analog synth and things turn into the house music on the Millennium Falcon. A child of the late 80s and early 90s, some cover choices include bizzare versions of songs by The Cure, Tom Waits, Ween and Britney Spears.
Obeloinkment's human is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter in real life and plays drums for the band Aftergrass
