Artist info

Artist description: A frenetic kaliedoscopic swirling of noise and music that never alights long in one place. It is music that references ideas as well as emotions and the themes are struggle, confusion, ecstacy and loss. It is the sound of a salmon fighting it's way over waterfalls toward the place of it's conception and birth to spawn again and landing instead on the dry shore in convulsions as it suffocates. It is exclusively improvised music recorded directly to stereo with no overdubbing.
