With a background in visual art, radio and sound engineering, Wish Lash conjoins ambient energetic textures into techno scaffolding, building spacious and menacing sonic environments that coalesce into driving, atmospheric dancefloor tracks. Her live performances fuse computer-based technologies with digital and analog hardware, weaving improvisational arrangements with live vocal performance and effects processing. A skilled recording engineer and producer, she sculpts sounds through synthesis and sampling, using digital and analog synthesizers along with Ableton Live, Max for Live and MaxMSP to steer her ever-evolving live performances toward greater cohesion and fluency.
 
Having studied visual arts at Alberta University of the Arts, she is influenced
by sound design and field recording artists as well as the interaction of the human voice with electronically produced sounds, blurring the boundary between nature and synthesis. Her ongoing experimentation is distilled in the self-released Chaos Choir (2020), a collection of no-frills techno tracks soaked in ethereal textures. In 2019, she was Artist in Residence at National Music Centre, where she recorded her latest release True Deceiver using the NMC’s famed collection of vintage synthesizers, and taught a production workshop for femme and non-binary artists.
 
Wish Lash’s rising prominence in the Canadian music scene is evident in accolades including features in press outlets such as Calgary Herald, New Feeling, and Sled Island, and placements in the !earshot charts in the National Electronic Top 10 and National Top 50 overall. Her 2018 release Altar of Doubt was 2018’s most played record on Calgary’s community radio station, CJSW 90.9 FM. She has shared stages with Tim Hecker, Shabazz Palaces, Ouri, and My Nu Leng, and has toured across Canada and Northern Europe. She currently works between Calgary, Alberta and Austin, Texas.
