PROMO: 5/25: The Infusion, Greyroom Brekthrough
Hello
For one night in Philadelphia:
Sunday, 5/25. 8pm.
The Infusion, and Greyroom Breakthrough, et al.
What happens when a musician from North Africa adds electronics to his
acoustic guitar and develops an interest in free improv and the avantgarde
of
Europe? What if he teamed up with two "rock" musicians of similar
interests from the
US and Europe? The answer is THE INFUSION.
Camel Zekri is a descendant of generations of Algerian musicians. Olivier
Paquotte is a bassist who lives in Nancy, France. He uses his instruments
for
their sonic capabilities, with feedback, distortion and slide he gives it
a wide
range, sometimes like a guitar, sometimes like a drum. And Ron Anderson -
NYC-based founder of The Molecules and PAK (toured the U.S. with Ruins,
also
played w/ Elliott Sharp, Marc Ribot, Otomo Yoshihide, Yamamoto of
Boredoms) - also
gets many unusual sounds from the instruments he plays - trumpet through
echo, drum machine in real time, and electric guitar blending with the
other two
musicians.
Opening will be local space sounds/ambient experimenters Greyroom
Breakthrough. Plus, the Highwire Gallery in Old City will lend some of
their resident
improvisers for the evening.
