Double bill - Si Paton (bass) & Javier Villegas (sax)

Two solo improvisers with a theatrical approach

Si Paton performs improvised solo prepared bass guitar. His work draws from the traditions of free jazz, harsh noise, metal, hardcore punk, 20th century classical and Fluxus. Armed with multiple distortion pedals, screwdrivers, drumsticks, pencils, and anything that the previous band left onstage, he has crafted compelling performances that consist of virtuosic free jazz one minute, dense walls of harsh noise.

Javier Villegas was born in Valladolid, Spain, in 2001 and lives in Tilburg, where he originally came to study at the conservatory. As a saxophonist and performer, Javier has collaborated closely with other disciplines in recent years, such as dance and circus. This translates into a highly theatrical approach in his solo performances, using texts and audience interaction.
