Coral Rose Kindred-Boothby

Coral Rose Kindred-Boothby is a composer and artist from Derbyshire. Her practice brings together electronic circuit design, multi-instrumental composition, songwriting, field recording and experimental studio production. Her compositions weave together song-soundscapes with tape loops made from field recordings, analog synthesis, traditional instrumentation and folk-rooted vocals and songwriting; creating a rich and dreamlike tapestry of sound. The instruments she makes explore sound environments through circuit design, drawing on site-specific artistic and sonic observations.
