Skewed is an experimental performer from Charlotte, North Carolina, renowned for improvised, textural performances described as torturous yet captivating. With a rotating lineup, Skewed blends elements of free jazz, noise rock, electronics, and performance art to create immersive live experiences. The project has released seven works from 2018 through 2024, led by the 2024 release Torture Jazz. Skewed has also shared stages with notable acts, including opening for Joan of Arc in Charlotte soon after releases Forever and Outcade (2019), a moment covered by CLTure. While 2025 has leaned toward release-driven activity rather than publicized tours, the project remains an important voice in the texture-forward/experimental scene in the city and beyond.
