Ka Baird is a performer, sound artist, musician and composer based in New York City. They are known for their live performances which include extended voice and microphone techniques combined with electronics and psychoacoustic interplay of flutes and other woodwinds. They create a present tense sound with a vigorous, ritualistic delivery that seeks extreme release through physical exertion and psychic extension. They have worked/collaborated with many other musicians, artists, filmmakers and choreographers, both in structured compositions and in their dedicated practice of improvisation and interdisciplinary work.

gabby fluke-mogul is a Brooklyn-based violinist, improviser, composer, educator, organizer, and doula.

Weaving within experimental threads of improvised musics, their playing has been described as “embodied, visceral and virtuosic” and “the most striking sound in improvised music in years”. On their 2022 solo release from Relative Pitch Records, Best of Jazz notes, "LOVE SONGS is graspable within its very first seconds of play. It has rare density...infinitely beautiful and magnificently poignant."

Nick Hallett is a New York based musician, artist, and organizer. Their experimental voice-based practice is rooted in play with non-language, song, and electronics. Known as an “invaluable” (New Yorker) impresario and collaborator to visual artists and choreographers, their music has been presented at MoMA, Park Avenue Armory, BAM, the Whitney, New Museum, The Kitchen, PERFORMA, Hayden Planetarium, Roulette, ISSUE Project Room, Danspace, and many other institutional and commercial spaces. They have sung in works by Anthony Braxton, Meredith Monk, and Susie Ibarra. Not generally known as a solo performer, for Deep Listening, Nick is making something completely new.

Daniel Klag constructs ambient audio sketches from isolated samples of acoustic and electric instruments, field recordings, and other found sounds. His output spans multiple labels including Muzan Editions, Patient Sounds, Constellation Tatsu, AMDISCS, and Soap Library. His latest album, Facsimile, takes inspiration from Enrique Vila-Matas’ A Brief History of Portable Literature, a novella presenting the fictional history of a secret society of writers and artists whose work is intentionally small and lightweight. Facsimile was recorded in small spaces (hotel rooms, train cars, an NYC apartment) using only portable battery-powered devices.

Kevin Kenkel is a Brooklyn-based composer and performer whose most recent album “Break All The Bones in Your Heart” was released by Soap Library in June 2024. His music comprises elegiac compositions for analog synthesizers and sampler, filled with pathos, heady atmospheres of longing and loneliness, unanswered calls, and missed connections. Additionally, he plays synthesizers and electronics with the performance artist Christeene, with recent performances in Oslo, Rome, Berlin, and London. Kevin curates Deep Listening, a bi-monthly evening of experimental electronics at Parkside Lounge in NYC’s Lower East Side. He has collaborated with Colin Self, Adam Tendler, Eve Essex, and Das Audit as a drummer and synthesist.
