Jeff ParkerComposer and guitarist Jeff Parker is a singular voice in today’s experimental music scene. From playing with renowned post-rock group Tortoise to session work with the likes of Yo La Tengo and Wilco’s Nels Cline, Parker’s multidisciplinary approach fuses tradition with the future. 2022 live album Mondays at the Enfield Tennis Academy offers an intimate glimpse at his genre-bending style and ferocious improvisational technique.
Slauson Malone 1
Previously of the avant-garde music collective Standing on the Corner, experimental rapper-singer Jasper Marsalis attracted adulation from Pitchfork and The Quietus for his Warp Records debut, Excelsior, in 2023. Its ethereal, composerly structure is wildly original and is anchored by a blend of falsetto and snippets of rhyme.
