Reid Anderson’s work as a composer and bass player has helped to define the sound of The Bad Plus since its inception in 2001. Widely considered one of the most significant groups of their time, The Bad Plus has amassed widespread acclaim and created an uncompromising body of work that spans 15 studio albums and countless live performances. The Bad Plus are widely considered to be one of the most significant groups of their time and Anderson’s prolific work as a composer has defined their sound throughout the years. His new band with Tina Priceman (Violin) and Gregg Belisle-Chi (Guitar) is based on his long time passion for electronic music. Using analog synths and drum machines Anderson explores the compositional and interactive possibilities of electronic music with live musicians. |

The guitarist, composer, ethnomusicologist, and instrument builder Paolo Angeli is associated with traditional Sardinian music. Whatever you want to call it, nobody else is doing it quite like this. Paolo Angeli, the Sardinian sorcerer, manually magics beautiful, multi-layered music from his unique prepared guitar: a hybrid orchestra of an instrument with strings going in all directions, foot-pedal-controlled motorised propellers and hammers to create shimmering drones and bass-lines as he bows, strikes, plucks and strums while producing rhythmic atmospherics by treading on a plastic bag and adjusting tunings on the fly. Electronic effects are utilized but no loops. With this singular instrument he improvises and composes unclassifiable music, suspended between traditional music of Sardinia, free jazz, flamenco, arabic suggestions, post-folk and pre-everything else, and came back in Sardinia with his voice in to the furrows of tradition |

His sugarcane-sweet melodies, pop-soul hooks and powerful guitar riffs, relinquish a conventional stereotype that exemplifies much of the Latin music landscape. His musical evolution for years was all about searching for the simplicity and soul in Cuban music – taking apart the complex arrangements, mixing it with North American influences, adopting the melodic simplicity of pop music, looking to Cuban folk traditions for inspiration – he’s always exploring, always creating something fresh and new, and always, it seems, getting it just right. |

Nicknamed “The Caribbean Patti Smith” by The Guardian, Moonlight Benjamin plays powerful and original music blending Caribbean Vodou melodies and 70s blues rock inspired by Dr John, Alabama Shakes, The Black Keys, and Oumou Sangaré. Creative Alliance presents Moonlight Benjamin’s new performance, Wayo, which is a spellbinding cry of pain showcasing her thundering vocals and lyrical themes on faith, energy, and our connection to the source. These new songs from Haiti’s Vodou priestess delve deep, immersing her philosophical messages in heavy blues rapture; killer riffs; and hand-clapping, foot-stomping percussion. |
