Two trios of master improvisers will reverberate the rafters with electric and organic sounds: experimental guitar trio Lotus Lungs and Bentley/Campbell/Levin.
Lotus Lungs is composed of three accomplished Seattle guitarists: Bill Horist, Matt Benham, and Tom Scully. Their backgrounds range from punk rock and electronic music to jazz and classical. They use special effects and prepared guitars to create unimaginable sounds, and no two performances are alike. If you thought you knew the guitar, prepare to be surprised.
They’ll be joined by the trio of Bentley/Campbell/Levin. That’s electric violist Heather Bentley, percussionist Greg Campbell, and harpist Carol Levin. Drawing from deep experience spanning jazz, classical, world music and free improv, this trio promises to generate organic yet futuristic sounds in their first Seattle appearance together.
Presented by Right Brain Records.
COVID-19 Protocols: Following current mandates from King County & WA State public health officials, proof of vaccination status or recent negative COVID test result will be required for entry, and all audience members will be required to wear a mask covering nose and mouth.
