Uncanny Landscapes #20 - Cheryl E. Leonard

An interview by Justin Hopper with Cheryl E. Leonard.

Cheryl E. Leonard is a musician, sound artist and composer who lives in Northern California and works there - or in Antarctice, or Scotland, or Scandinavia... Her practice of making compositions 'of' and 'with' place combines field recordings with music made from original instruments built from natural objects.

Her website is https://allwaysnorth.com/ and she's also on Instagram.

Her album Antarctica: Music from the Ice is available from Bandcamp: https://othermindsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/antarctica-music-from-the-ice

A new release just out is Littoral: https://ruralsituationism.bandcamp.com/album/littoral

Host Justin Hopper has an Uncanny Landscapes substack - it's free, and includes the podcast + more. JH can be found via LinkTree or on Instagram.
