San Diego/Ensenada cross-border sound art group New Tongues will perform the opening set for this special outdoor candlelight session in conjunction with the newly opened Jacumba Hot Springs Hotel. Founded in 2023 by artist and musician Preston Swirnoff with field recordist/sound designer Xareni Lizarraga and violist/producer Kathia Rudametkin, New Tongues is an adventure in interdisciplinary collaboration. With an emphasis on live performance and immersive sound environments, the group uses sound sculptures, field recordings, and traditional instruments to craft electroacoustic song forms that celebrate intimacy, relationship ecologies, and deep listening. Headlining will be the acclaimed trio Dwarfs of East Agouza on tour from Cairo, Egypt. The group features Alan Bishop, co-founder of the Sublime Frequencies record label and original member of legendary underground group Sun City Girls. Bishop is joined by Egyptian composer Maurice Louca and musician/filmmaker Sam Shalabi. Dwarfs of East Agouza was formed in 2012 when the three Cairo residents began exploring their potent mix of hypnotic Egyptian street music, free improvised guitar styles of North Africa, and the pulse of motorik krautrock rhythms.
