Sofie Herner (b. 1984) is a contemporary underground and DIY veteran. Herner’s work is driven byan approach which favours the primal and raw over any notion of virtuosity or academic expertise,inviting chance and improvisation as a way of pushing her compositions into a state of violentvulnerability. Over the past decade Herner has been an integral part of the Swedish experimental/noise scene as a part of Neutral, Källarbarnen, the Enhet För Fri Musik collective, etc. In her soloproject Leda, she constructs stealthy rhythms and phantom melodies using the electric guitar. Inrecent years she has been operating as second drummer in Eternal Music Society from Malmö.

Sofie Herner will perform as part of the IRRLICHT showcase.
