SPECTRUM DAY 2

Saturday’s line-up features another double-header of music at the free end of the spectrum, this time in the intimate surrounds of Fumbally Stables, with two exceptionally innovative acts.

Brussels based Thunderblender is a jazz/improv trio led by Irish saxophonist Sam Comerford. Blending adventurous free improv wrapped in their trademark thunderous grooves and interspersed throughout with moments of fragile beauty, Thunderblender’s bassless horn-piano-percussion format, inspired by artists like Tim Berne and Henry Threadgill have catapulted the band across the European Festival circuit in recent years.

Presented in association with Note Productions, the powerful duo of Catherine Sikora (tenor and soprano saxophones) and Brian Chase (Yeah Yeah Yeah’s / drums) pairs up two distinguished voices working at the forefront of modern jazz. At once lyrical and powerful, dynamic and focused, their music opens itself to a wide emotional and conceptual range which in turn provides for a broad expressive palette.
