White/Light is the psychedelic drone duo of Jeremy Lemos and Matt Clark. W/L began in 2003 as a process-focused recording-only project, with Lemos layering analog electronics, synthesizers, electric bass, and sruti box underneath the soloing swirl and scuzz of Clark's looped electric guitars. The instrumental duo quickly developed into a performing group and began playing shows in their native Chicago in early 2004, leaving the nuanced composition of the studio work behind for a raw, blissful, and overwhelmingly loud live electric sound. Clark and Lemos have released one full-length under the White/Light name (self-titled, 2005, Rebis Records), as well as a highly-praised collaboration with Robert A. A. Lowe under the name White/Lichens (self-titled, 2007, Holy Mountain). A new White/Light full-length, titled Black Acts, was released in October, 2008, on Smells Like Records. The new release demonstrates the duo's developing ability to craft compositions from raw improvised noise, with an emphasis on more amplified acoustic instruments and less overdubs than their earlier recordings. White/Light has performed extensively in Chicago, as well as Montreal and New York City. As White/Lichens, Clark and/or Lemos have performed with Lowe throughout the Midwest, East Coast, England, and France. Past performance highlights include appearances at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago and the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art. White/Light will perform throughout North America in January, 2009, and are planning a tour of Europe and the western U.S. for May and June, 2009. Read more on Last.fm.
