Iqbal to Perform at WKC

EAST MEREDITH — Nabihah Iqbal, a musician, producer and DJ from London, is performing at the West Kortright Center on Friday September 27 at 7pm.

Before becoming an electro pop queen in her own right, Nabihah Iqbal helped shape hyperpop by lending her vocals to tracks by SOPHIE. She’s also collaborated with quantum physicists on audiovisual performances; worked with Wolfgang Tillmans on a series of talks and performances in London; and she hosts a bi-weekly NTS show that brings “an ethnomusicological perspective on weird and wonderful music from around the world”. Her 2017 new wave-inspired debut album, Weighing of the Heart, led Pitchfork to hail her as “a songwriter of impressive emotional heft”. After a studio burglary and a trip to Pakistan to see her family, her new outlook on life formed the basis of its 2023 follow-up, DREAMER.

Doors open at 6pm. Food and drinks will be available at the concession stand.

This is an indoor concert with general admission seating. Tickets are $20 in advance, $25 at the door. Members receive a 10% discount, kids 12 and under are 50% off. Visit westkc.org to purchase tickets.
