Sounds From the Black Hole ft. Alex Cunningham / Damon Smith / Jerome Bryerton and LXQ trio

Two exciting, improvised trios featuring musicians from St. Louis, Chicago and Bloomington.
ALL-AGES
________________________
Alex Cunningham (violin, STL) / Damon Smith (double bass, STL) / Jerome Bryerton (drums, CHI)
While all of this trio has been to Bloomington, they have never performed here all together. Jerome and Damon performed alongside Ortet last fall at Russian Recording, but Alex has not been since 2017. All seasoned improvisers, this trio will conjure wild sounds together, composed on the fly. Damon has been a student and explorer of the upright bass for decades, also running the label Balance Point Acoustics. Jerome and Alex are both accomplished visual artists as well. Jerome is a print-maker and painter, and Alex creates collages that are just as kinetic as his playing.
