Eda Er + SARAH GRACE GRAVES
Aaron Bennett + Scott R. Looney + MATT MONTGOMERY


SARAH GRACE GRAVES and Eda Er perform an audio-visual set of voice and electronics that investigates storytelling as technology and voice that extends beyond the body.


The adventurous trio of Aaron Bennett (saxes), Scott R. Looney (piano, prepared piano, electronics), and MATT MONTGOMERY (bass) reassembles for another round of wide ranging sonic exploration covering classic territory from similar trios of Paul Bley as well as more esoteric corners of free jazz, skronk, and standards. The lack of percussion allows more of a chamber music aesthetic to hold sway here, where each player has equal weight to contribute to the aural landscape.

Cost: $10-$25 sliding scale
