LIEGENAAR is an experimental improvisation duo from Antwerp, Belgium. Their practice takes on different forms reaching from noise performances and sound installations to food art.

With an ever-changing set-up they construct an atmosphere that is both welcoming and hostile at the same time. They are interested in using a variety of lo-fi techniques and sound sources like tape recordings, handmade electronics and amplified junk materials while retaining a naive approach to making sound. This results in a mixture of murky vocalizations layered upon dissonant rhythms glued together with handmade and manipulated instruments carefully beaten to pulp.

Liegenaar is a (childish) corruption of the word liar. It is an accusation that is rendered harmless by the naivety that creeps into it.
