Additional live performances and more on ASSEMBLY OF LIGHT will be announced in the coming days.
One of the most unique musical acts in existence, featuring nearly two dozen members, the ASSEMBLY OF LIGHT choir is a secular all-female choral faction, unifying their incredible range of voices into beautiful, and often undeniably eerie, ethereal hymns, which blend classical styles through their own artistic experimentation and tactics. Formed in 2008 by vocalist Chrissy Wolpert, the unit has showcased their craft live across the nation, and following their unforgettable collaborations both live and in the studio -- playing a major role in The Body’s All The Waters Of The Earth Turn To Blood as well as The Body & Braveyoung’s collaborative Nothing Passes LP -- the choir released their self-titled debut album via At A Loss Recordings in 2012. Wolpert also makes ethereal vocal contributions to The Body’s anticipated upcoming Master, We Perish release.
