Event information

Sentient Beings

Faith Brackenbury: violin
Tony Bianco: drums
John Pope: double bass
John O’Gallagher: saxophone

Four strongly individualistic improvising voices from the US and UK come together for an exploration of spontaneous composition. Blending US saxophonist John O’Gallagher’s cerebral study of 12 tone improvising and the music of John Coltrane, UK violinist/violist/vocalist Faith Brackenbury’s jazz and contemporary strings and inventive use of effects, UK bassist John Pope’s energetic jazz, pop and rock influences and Tony Bianco’s mercurial and octopusian drumming will create a spiritual, intellectual, powerfully absorbing experience.

Dragons of Disgust
Dragons of Disgust are a wonky avant prog jazz metal power trio made up of Ned Peckham (Yellow Door) on drums, Ruben Aaronovich-Bruce (Yellow Door/Howling Spheres) on tenor saxophone and Adrian Southby (ChopChop/The Golgis/Simian Carbuncle) on baritone guitar. They play a combination of tricky compositions and disturbing improvised soundscapes. On stage they laugh a lot. Don’t look for evidence online, there isn’t any.
