Noise Pop Festival 2026 Presents The Fiery Furnaces Spacemoth — The Fiery Furnaces is the long-running collaboration between siblings Eleanor and Matthew Friedberger. Renowned for their dense, allusive lyrics, formally inventive compositions, and unpredictable live shows, the band occupies a singular space in the landscape of experimental pop. They will reconvene for a limited series of duo performances to revisit their 2004 album, Blueberry Boat–a cult touchstone of adventurous songwriting and raw, idiosyncratic energy. This reunion is less a nostalgic reprise than a continuation of the band’s interrogation of song form, memory, and narrative—rendered now with renewed clarity and conceptual precision. — Devotion to music has driven Spacemoth's Maryam Qudus —a performer, composer, and producer based in Oakland—for as long as she can remember. At age twelve, she traded chores for guitar lessons; at sixteen, she took on after school jobs to pay for voice lessons. From a young age, Qudus was determined to find a place for herself in music, and after years of building a reputation as a sought-after producer and studio engineer, she’s found a prominent place for herself. She’s collaborated with countless artists, including clients like Toro y Moi, Spellling — and La Luz, who she joined as a full-time member after producing the band’s most recent album “News of the Universe”, out on Sub Pop
