The Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft hosts an experimental showcase this Patriot Day, courtesy of Cropped Out, Louisville’s magnet organization for booking the bizarre and overlooked. What a lovely evening this will be. California songstress Fielded, known off-stage as Lindsey Powell, emulates a less screechy Kate Bush with more elasticity in the throat to hold down her vocally driven, abrasive melodies lurking in the realm of post-pop. She currently tours with label mates Head/Head, who claim a new release on Catholic Tapes and are self-described as “gospel sci-fi.” Spend the intermissions in deep contemplation and check out KMAC’s current exhibition, “Storytelling as Craft.” Then return for some local avant-garde ponderings with Softcheque. There’s no better time to get experimental than 9/11 (thank you, William Basinski). —Lara Kinne
