An evening of extended drone experiments w/ mems. of Sun Spells, Time/Being, Tzar, Underground River, BRIAN!, Soft Healer, the Cornell Avant Garde Ensemble, Hiroshima Vacation, and more.

Welcome to the third installment of NAKED NOISE. The project began last year as a three-way collaboration between local drone-lords Sun Spells, jazz-punk duo The Invisible Hand, and the genre-defying trio Time/Being. The result for each of the May and July sets was a epic ritual of drone, volume, and visuals. 

Join us once again as we transform the CSMA Auditorium into an ethereal sound garden, with a massive 16 musician, amplified ensemble. This is far more than just a show - more of a total transcendental sound experience. The performers will be set up in a ring, where the audience is encouraged to wander around the circle of musicians and experience the performance from a variety of angles. The sound will stretch and mutate based on which performers you're closest to. 

The performance will be entirely improvised with each musician dedicated to the ebb and flow of chaos and restraint. 

So far, musicians include all 5 members of Sun Spells, including their Purple Henry and her vocal prowess, the Ithaca return of Time/Being, Michael Stark of Tzar (etc), Hunter Davidsohn of Underground River, Will Slack and Marie Butcher of Soft Healer, Bubba Crumrine of BRIAN!/Mouth To Mouth To Mouth, Taylan Cihan of Problematic and the Cornell Avant Garde Ensemble, VII of Hiroshima Vacation, and Michael Troutman. Get ready for a mountain of guitars, bass, electronics, amps, and percussion and be sure to join us for a very unique sound experience.
