Kirsten Carey is a guitarist, composer, and performer. She was raised in Chicago, IL and, after two years in Los Angeles, presently resides in Detroit, MI. While perhaps most well-known for playing the very skronky guitar solo on clipping.’s “Stab Him in the Throat” for the Emmy Award-winning television show Rick and Morty, Carey’s primary projects include the angular no-wave duo Throwaway, the classical-rock-improv Uroboros Sextet, solo-doom project Shima, the Legend of Zelda-centric quintet The Seven Sages, and the Ulysses Project - a suite based on James Joyce's novel that combines free jazz, rock, and theater. Carey's work plays with the boundary between music and the more theatrical and presentational aspects of performance, and constantly tampers with the idea of "genre."
