PEAK TIME

Kayla Guthrie

The multidisciplinary artist on her most recent sonic exploration for the relaunched avant-garde label Wild Flesh.

Guest host Thea Ballard speaks with avant-garde multidisciplinary artist Kayla Guthrie. The NYC-based Guthrie, who has exhibited and performed at a variety of music and art venues, charts emotional structures and introspective landscapes through her music, writing and visual art. Her self-defined musical spirit is influenced by the No Wave era and spoken-word poetry, as well as by artists like Laurie Anderson who seamlessly weave disparate elements together. Guthrie’s resulting sound is something very personal, causing The Wire to designate her 2015 EP Blue as “a twilight zone both lyrically and conceptually… as if Guthrie’s thoughts and words coincide with an atmosphere that she contingently occupies for this moment.” Guthrie’s latest sonic exploration comes in the form of a new EP, Falling Star — she will release it next month on the recently relaunched avant label Wild Flesh. She’ll speak with Thea about this latest record.

Kayla Guthrie Falling Star / 2018 / EP / WFP11 Release Date: July 16, 2018

A misty glow flows along the recumbent silhouette of Kayla Guthrie’s new ep, FALLING STAR. This is the body of the artist as aural ghost, her figure lit by shuddering rhythms and synthesized echoes, and she knows what she is doing when she stands in front of that light. Not only did she build it but she has written all about it, gathered the notes and transcribed the lyrics onto paper that is as sunshine. Guthrie is dazed and dazzling with so much light, yet the clouds roll in toward the light every time.  Her translucent voice lifts your hem and so tender is her bite, so weird, so intense. This is new music spinning fast in a dance with archangels (Jarboe, Cocteau Twins, Lydia Tomkiw and Leslie Winer) and barreling straight through heaven’s gate.
