AUDREY CHEN is a 2nd generation Chinese/Taiwanese-American musician who was born into a family of material scientists, doctors and engineers, outside of Chicago in 1976. Parting ways with the family convention, she turned to the cello at age 8 and voice at 11. After years of classical and conservatory training in both instruments, she parted ways again in 2003 to begin new negotiations with sound in order to discover a more individually honest aesthetic. Since then, using the cello, voice and occasional analog electronics, her work delves deeply into her own version of narrative and non-linear storytelling, a large component of her music being improvised. Besides her solo work, you’ll also hearing her collaborative project MOPCUT with Lukas Konig and Julien Desprez. You can read the rest of the interview with Audrey on our website.
