Daniel Higgs, Michael Zerang

A rare duo performance from percussionist/composer Michael Zerang and guitarist/vocalist/banjo player Daniel Higgs (ex Lungfish) conjuring densely interwoven improvisations that draw on traditional forms but take them in defiantly unexpected directions.

Both musicians will be familiar to OTO regulars - Zerang was here most recently last December with Joe McPhee's Survival Unit III alongside Fred Lonberg-Holm, and his gracefully rolling approach to the drums has provided a welcome, beatific contrast to PNLs full-on assaults in Peter Brötzmann's Chicago Tentet. Daniel A.I.U Higgs has also been responsible for some singularly memorable performances here alongside the likes of Maya Dunietz and Jennifer Walshe. His transcendental raga are sure to reach an even higher hypnotism in this pairing with Zerang.
