Laure Boer is a multi-instrumentalist based in Berlin. Her music is inspired by noise music and traditional folk. Her performances are hypnotic improvisations around traditional instruments, electroacoustic and DIY-electronic objects, and sometimes a voice, singing or reciting in her native French; a vibrant universe that is both vulnerable and brutal. She has worked with Rabih Beaini, Marie-Louise Andersson, Dj Die Soon, Diane Barbé, Luise Volkmann and many others and did several residencies such as Nusasonic in Manila/PH (CTM/Goethe Institut/Musicboard Berlin), and Sound Art Lab in Denmark, an institution in the former Bang&Olufsen laboratories. She played at Berlin Atonal, WSK Festival/PH, the Dokumenta fifteen, at ARTE TV and toured Europe solo and in various duo and trio constellations. She is published by the labels Kashual Plastik, Chinabot, Otomatik Muziek, and has been featured on the compilation “Below the Radar” by The Wire magazine, BBC Radio and NPR.
