A Delicate Motor

WCPO Lounge Acts

More than just another band, Cincinnati’s own A Delicate Motor is a music composition and performance project like nothing you’ve ever heard before. Launched by Adam Petersen, the group utilizes keyboard, vocals, and completely unique percussion loops to create ambient sounds that the give same improvised, untethered vibe of good jazz music, with the energy and newness of electro-pop.

A Delicate Motor’s latest, Fellover My Own, releases later this month, and will feature no shortage of sonic imagery. “This work posits to express the experience — trifling, humbling and humouring — of the conundrum of human effort,” explains frontman Petersen. “By endeavouring to cultivate higher self, or spiritual awareness, or better person, we paradoxically inhibit ourselves within our very striving.”

Set list:

• "Fall Out"
• "Bottom"
• -interview-
• "Durham"

Mixed by Brian Niesz. Hosted by Emmalee Smith.
