ALBUM RELEASE PARTY! An immersive sonic experience of deep sound exploration and cross-genre collaboration, alternately tranquil and disquieting improvised music using string instruments, voices, and manual tape effect processing.
Whitney Johnson, Lia Kohl, and Macie Stewart are a trio who utilize string instruments, voices, and manual tape effect processing to craft compositions from alternately tranquil and disquieting improvised music. The three musicians are individually rooted in deep sound exploration, multi-disciplinary composition, and all manner of cross-genre collaboration. The musical ground covered by their solo practices is correspondingly expansive, and their individual recording and performance credits read as a veritable who’s who, ranging from DIY darlings to household names of experimental avant-garde, electronic, indie rock, and more.
BODY SOUND, their debut album, will be released by International Anthem on March 20, 2026.

Adam Schatz & Carmen Quill will be performing an improvised duo, celebrating the release of the new album Civil Engineering Vol. 1 (Jealous Butcher Records) featuring Schatz, Quill & drummer Qasim Naqvi.
Adam Schatz is a southern Vermont resident who releases albums under the project name Landlady, and tours extensively with Japanese Breakfast and Neko Case. When not on the road he works producing records for other artists and improvising with his favorite people.

She's is a regular collaborator with/performs in the bands and projects: tilt (Kalia Vandever, Isabel Crespo Pardo), Scree (Ryan El-Solh, Jason Burger), Allan Mednard Trio (Santiago Leibson), and Asa Horvitz’s GHOST (Wayne Horvitz, Ariadne Randall). In 2025, she began performing with Billy Hart and Jacob Sacks in a trio featuring original compositions by all three members, with support from Next Jazz Legacy.
