Solo artist Grace George plays acoustic covers and originals with her loop pedal at the Mad Squirrel taproom.
Grace George is back at Mad Squirrel on Saturday 7 November, returning to the taproom for the venue's Saturday live-music session. She's a solo artist who works with acoustic covers and her own originals, and this set will be built around her loop pedal.
If you're not familiar with how a loop pedal works, it's essentially a way for a single performer to build a song in real time. She records a part — a guitar line, a vocal harmony, a rhythmic tap — and then loops it, layering more parts on top until a full arrangement grows from a single instrument. It means the songs she's known for as acoustic pieces get a bit more weight and texture when she's playing them live.
That's the core of what she does here: she takes the songs she loves and builds her own arrangements around them. The set will be a mix of those covers and her own original material, both worked over with the loop pedal. It's a solo performance, so it's just her on stage, and the loop pedal is what lets her fill out the sound on her own.
