JAZZ LOFT returns and presents: REID+WOLKEN+CLAMAN.

An atmospheric & hypnotic 'dark jazz' vibe emanating from their instruments, textural looping & subtle groove laden beats.

Dunedin-based versatile trombonist and live electronic texture maker Peter Claman (aka Texture Time) joins forces with the contemporary hypno-jazz/ jazz noir duo - Karin Reid (voice, loop, shruti box) and Alex Wolken (guitar, loop) - for an evening of in-the-moment improvisational creations along with collaborations on some Reid+Wolken's original compositions.

From the creative team who also brought you the eclectic INDIE VOICES and experimental SONIC SOUP KITCHEN initiatives, this JAZZ LOFT concert will be held in the vintage setting of TRIDENT HOUSE in the Vogel Street area, taking advantage of the rich acoustic and intimacy of this unique and quirky utilitarian space.

REID+WOLKEN+CLAMAN will walk the fine line between the edgy and transcendental in this explorative simultaneous musical concoction. Come join!

Saturday 1 March

7.00pm

Trident House, 88 Vogel Street, Dunedin (entrance on Jetty Street, near the overbridge)
