About the artists:
Danny Kamins is an improvising saxophonist based out of Houston, TX. His current musical endeavors include playing in various ensembles such as Sleeping Beast, El Mantis, Dennis Gonzalez Legacy Band, FireLife Trio, and Relative Dissonance as well as directing the jazz program at Rice University. Musicians he has performed/recorded with include Tatsuya Nakatani, Alvin Fielder, Ra Kalam Bob Moses, LaDonna Smith, Aaron Gonzalez, Stefan Gonzalez, Susan Alcorn, Jamison Williams, Thomas Helton, Lisa Cameron, Adam Goodwin, Vinny Golia, Antonio Borghini, David Leon, Jeb Bishop, Taylor Rouss, Sandy Ewen, Alexander Von Schlippenbach, Damon Smith, Luke Stewart, Kamila Drabek, Marc Edwards, Vincent Davis, Natan Kryszk, and Paulina Owczarek.
David Reed performs as a soloist under the moniker Envenomist (CMH). Some people equate David Reed’s solo project Envenomist (CMH) with science fiction film scores; others envision solitary nocturnal travels through bleak urban settings. A fundamental strength of Envenomist is that these illusory backdrops remain open to interpretation. Taking inspiration from industrial, ambient, and the kosmische scenes along with altered states of consciousness, the oceanic abyss, and deep space, Reed has been producing desolate soundscapes under the Envenomist moniker since 2005.
Chris Weldon has been engaging in creative endeavors for you to see, hear, taste and recall for several decades.
Gerard Cox is a pianist, trumpeter, and percussionist from Columbus with a keen interest in musical surrealism and the percussive nature of the piano. Born to a piano teacher Mom and a jazz saxophone hobbyist father, clear “rockstar” inclinations were shown at age 8 in an appearance as J.S. Bach at an OMTA music festival and at 10 as Billy Idol in a look-a-like contest for the national pop/rock magazine Star Hits. Cox developed a love for jazz in high school on through college, studying both jazz piano and B3 organ. While initially taken with the straight-ahead jazz of Art Blakey and Clifford Brown, he followed John Coltrane’s discography into his later period music and this proved to be the gateway for a fascination with free jazz and all kinds of other outsider/experimental music.
Drew Sherrick is a musician based in Columbus, OH. He mostly plays strings and electronics. He performs solo, as well as with Collector Of Dust, Crone of the Wildwood, Funque Concrète, JNCO, Zack Kouns’ Insatiable Orchestra, Orch, Snake Man!, and others.
Dylan Craft is a local musician and student based in the Columbus, Ohio area who plays multiple instruments including saxophone, drums, guitar, and piano.
