The mixed media work of textile artist Kai Chan will be the backdrop for this concert of spider inspired Canadian new music.

Club Inegales premiere in London, UK on Nov. 1st, 2012

I am honoured and delighted to join the ranks of John Harle and Evan Parker and perform as a guest at Club Inegales in London on Nov. 1st, 2012.

Club Inegales is a nightclub in central London dedicated to performing contemporary, improvised music at the highest possible level. It’s the “club we’ve always wanted but never dared imagine”.

Led by artistic director Peter Weigold, who combines guest artists with a house band of some of Britain’s top musicians, it is a bold and daring exploration of new music presented in an entirely unique context. Here is a video about the club and their first guest this season, John Harle.

I’m nervous about this one – so come out if you can!!!   180 North Gower Street, near Euston Station   Bar opens at 7:00, music starts at 8:00.
