Margot St-Finch

I met more neighbors and made more friends during this blizzard than I have in the rest of my 2 years in town. If you feel lonely or lost, wear a silly hat and walk around with a shovel 💛

WHY THE SEA IS SALT (2026). Performance with musician/vocalist Margot St-Finch. A retelling of a fairy tale of the same name, we used sculpted acoustic drone instruments, mandola, mandolin, tenor banjo, and voice to compose and perform an original score in a genre we're calling "experimental folk-noise". Performed at AS220 on 2/12/26, run time 45 minutes. Thanks to everyone who came out to see the show! @pidgemar

Concrete noise machine + eerie old ballads! My beautiful and talented fiancée Margot St-Finch lent her vocals to this track, "Poor Lad". More noise machines and vocal collaborations forthcoming =) The song is an old traditional; here's one version of the lyrics: "I am a poor lad whose fortune is bad And I am misfortunate poor. But do I intend my fortune to mend, And to build a house out on the moor, my brave boys, To build a house out on the moor. The farmer does keep fat oxen and sheep And a neat little nag on the downs. In the middle of the night when the moon does shine bright There’s a great deal of work to be done, my brave boys, There’s a great deal of work to be done. I’ll ride all around in some other man’s land, And I’ll take a fat ewe for my own. With the aid of my knife I will end of its life And then I will carry it home, my brave boys, And then I will carry it home. And my children they will use the skin from the ewe, And I’ll be in a place where there’s none. When the constable does come, I will stand with my gun And I’ll swear all I have is my own, my brave boys, I’ll swear all I have is my own." @risd1877 @risdsculpture
