I’m franticly patching things together for the first live outing of my ‘silt’ project next Friday the 18th of June at Chameleon in Nottingham courtesy of Rammel Club. Really excited to play live again but it’s been a good couple of years and it’s the first time I’ve played solo outside of the confines of Hull’s little improv scene so I’m quietly bricking it. The set will be totally live and about 90% improvised so who knows… I guess there’s lots of potential for it to magically go right and for everything to sound structured and beautiful but there’s equal potential for it to sound nasty, messy and broken – but if that risk wasn’t there, where would the fun be?
Anyway, I’m really looking forward to seeing Pekko Käppi, it should be a good night whatever happens.
You can hear some rough sketches I made a couple of months back here.
