Bang Klang and RBK

2022 - Ongoing

Bang Klang is a performance project in which multi-media artist A.P. Bergeron and myself improvise sonically to specific moments in specific places with instruments brought and devises available.

RBK is a collaboration between A.P. Bergeron, synthesizer builder and master player Rivka Marie, and myself, that follows the same live principals as the Bang Klang project, while also incorporating methods of post processing towards the music’s released record.

Bang Klang was interviewed by the photographer and podcaster Peter Holiday for his podcast The Land Behind. Listen to us talk to Peter during our residency at the Orient Point Lighthouse here.
