KRISTINE LESCHPER, NINA REYSER, KARAOKE

Under the moniker Mothers, Kristine Leschper released coiling idiosyncratic songs that draw on the stark, skeletal sounds of post-punk and contemporary freak folk. Under her own name, she’s shifted to percussion, synthesizers, strings and fluttering woodwinds to craft baroque compositions that recall 1970s experimental rockers Henry Cow. Drawing on her background in contemporary classical composition, Nina Ryser’s experimental pop draws on lush synths, vocals and electronics. Karaoke tills a post-punk/dance field similar to Leschper’s Mothers, but with a playful streak that nods to 1980s new wavers The Waitresses.
