Laurel Halo
.
This summer, Halo returns to Pioneer Works after her lastest release, 𝙈𝙞𝙙𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙕𝙤𝙣𝙚, the original soundtrack to Julian Charrière’s new film—an ambiguous investigation into the extractivist threats the Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ) nestled between Hawaii and Mexico faces, by illuminating the scintillating life-forms that occupy these waters. In the Main Hall, Halo will perform a live ambient piano piece. Artist and past collaborator
Ash Fure
will kick off the evening with a live performance preceding the live score.
This concert takes place within artist Ash Fure’s site-specific installation,

About the artists
Laurel Halo
is a Los Angeles-based composer, producer, recording artist, and musician. Her music is known for its depth and sense of presence, melding the materiality and spirituality of sound to focus on concepts of transmission, memory, and impermanence. Drawing influence from musique concrète, film score, and jazz, she uses both organic and inorganic sound materials, an extensive studio-as-instrument practice, and a deep appreciation for harmony to create her signature sound across a stylistically diverse catalog. She has toured and presented work around the world at places including the Barbican Centre, Ina-GRM, the Sydney Opera House, Kölner Philharmonie, Unsound Festival, and the Julia Stoschek Foundation, among others. She has collaborated with musicians, artists, and designers, including Moritz von Oswald, Metahaven, Kevin Beasley, Julia Holter, Hanne Lippard, John Cale, Leila Bordreuil, Julian Charrière, and the London Contemporary Orchestra. The album
Atlas
(LP, 2023), the first on her Awe imprint, was met with wide acclaim.
Ash Fure’
s full-bodied sonic experiences work on the senses in startling ways. Called “purely visceral” and “staggeringly original” by The New Yorker, the artist’s live performances and total installations mobilize the elemental force of sound, the social muscle of listening, and our animal capacity to sense. Winner of a 2025 Creative Capital Grant, she has also received two Lincoln Center Emerging Artists Awards, a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Rome Prize in Music Composition, a DAAD Artists-in-Berlin Prize, an FCA Grant for Artists, a Fulbright Fellowship to France, a Stuttgart Composition Prize, a Darmstadt Kranichsteiner Musikpreis, and a Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowship from Columbia University. Fure holds a PhD in Music Composition from Harvard University, is Professor of Sonic Arts at Dartmouth College, and served as co-artistic director of The Industry LA from 2021 to 2024.
