The international music presence at Sasquatch music festival this year was small, but global acts ranked among the more memorable of the weekend. Highlights included the powerful, female-led Little Dragon out of Sweden bringing the house down on Sunday night, Awesome Tapes From Africa mixing up an eclectic array of obscure found cassettes, and Beardyman (Darren Foreman), a British beatbox and live-loop artist, who unveiled custom-built equipment fusing a comedic style with improvised looping.
Traveling direct from London after a 6-month absence spent building his own software, Beardyman’s performance at Sasquatch was the testing grounds and kick off of his worldwide tour. Watch the video below for a interview with Beardyman after his performance.
