“The perfect distillation of uneasy listening.” — Dave Foxall, aJazzNoise
Shifting and switching from No Wave skronk to interstellar guitarist-as-drummer virtuosity, from stampedes of miniature Pomeranian Buffalos to All-You-Zombies heterophonies, Han-earl Park (박한얼) has been performing beautifully messy, joyously difficult, ambiguous and discordant improvised musics for over twenty years.
Park is the mastermind behind ensembles including Eris 136199 with Catherine Sikora and Nick Didkovsky; Juno 3 with Lara Jones and Pat Thomas; and Gonggong 225088 with Yorgos Dimitriadis and Camila Nebbia; and performs as part of a duo with Richard Barrett. His ensembles have appeared at festivals including Jazz em Agosto (Lisbon), EFG London Jazz Festival, Brilliant Corners (Belfast), Freedom of the City (London), ISIM (New York), dialogues festival (Edinburgh) and Sonic Acts (Amsterdam). Park’s recordings have been released by labels including NEWJAiM, Waveform Alphabet, Ramble Records, SLAM Productions, Creative Sources and DUNS Limited Edition.
Sara Neidorf (they/them, b. 1990, Philadelphia) is a Berlin-based drummer and film curator. Neidorf drums in the genre-expansive, heavy bands Mellowdeath, Mad Kate | The Tide, Soporose, and Sarattma. As a session musician, they’ve recorded and toured internationally with such artists as The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Peaches, and Sometimes With Others, and have also drummed for theater and dance productions at the Volksbühne, Berliner Ensemble, Sophiensaele, Radialsystem, and at festivals such as Berlin Atonal, Tanztage, 3hd, and Grauzone. As an instructor, Neidorf has focussed their teaching efforts on women, queer, and non-binary students and has formerly taught at organizations as varied as BIMM University Berlin and Girls Rock Philly. When not drumming, Neidorf co-directs Final Girls Berlin Film Fest, which showcases horror made by women and NB filmmakers.
