Philly native, Tara Burke’s freak-folk project Fursaxa started back in 1999 after her previous band UN broke up. Since then, Burke has released 8 albums worth of material on various independent labels as well as self-releasing five more albums. Each of Fursaxa’s songs has a haunting, alluring quality which puts listeners into a hypnotic trance. Burke’s unique sound comes from her heavily layered vocal tracks, which combine beautifully with acoustic guitar and minimalist keyboards. Aside from her solo work with Fursaxa, Burke has also collaborated with fellow Philly freak-folkster and Espers’ band member Helena Espvall in the duo’s Anahita as well as British singer-songwriter Sharron Kraus in the dark folk project, Tau Emerald. Kraus is also on the evening’s bill, along with Weyes Blood and Laughing Eye Weeping Eye. Highwire Gallery, 2040 Frankford Ave., $6, 8pm, All Ages – Dan Brightcliffe
