Myrninerest was formed in 2012 by David Tibet as a new Sphere for him and his friends and family to work within. David founded Current 93 in 1984 and has since worked with such idiosyncratic artists as Nurse With Wound, Nick Cave, Shirley Collins, Tiny Tim, Anthony, Bill Fay, Nick Blinko, and Baby Dee. Also a publisher and artist, he recently had an exhibition of his paintings, Magog at the Maypole (Sex of Stars) at NYCʼs prestigious White Columns gallery.

For Myrninerest he works with guitarist James Blackshaw, whose extraordinary new album, Love Is the Plan, the Plan Is Death, was released recently on Important records. Highly regarded for his pieces for solo 12-string guitar, nylon-string classical guitar and piano, Blackshaw employs finger-picking techniques to create drones, overtones and repeating patterns, alongside a strong inclination for melody, creating instrumental music that is both intelligent, hypnotic, and emotional.

Myrninerest’s debut album “Jhonn”, Uttered Babylon is a hallucinatory and harrowing work about the life and death of Jhonn Balanceof of the highly influential British experimental group Coil, as seen through the eyes of his close friend and colleague David Tibet. With lyric by Tibet, and all music on the album composed and played by Blackshaw, the two are joined onstage by Current 93ʼs violinist Aloma Ruiz Boada, Andrew Liles (electronics), and Reinier van Houdt (piano/organ). As Myrninerest perform, a specially commissioned new film by Davide Pepe about Jhonn Balance – using archival material from David Tibetʼs own collection and photographs supplied by Jhonnʼs father – is projected behind them.

The ensemble made its debut performance at Antony's Meltdown Festival in London in August 2012.
