Sunchoke is a quartet composed of David Leon (Alto Saxophone), Aaron Quinn (Guitar/Compositions), Walter Stinson (Upright Bass) and Matt Honor (Drums). Combining the raw intensity of early 2000s screamo with sophisticated compositional techniques drawn from contemporary classical masters.
All filtered through the lens of exhaustion and daily inadequacy that defines modern existence, Sunchoke’s work can be best described as a door into Quinn’s memory and the ensembles ability to adapt and question these thoughts. Their debut record, ‘to be held’ was released on Endectomorph Music.

"Wonderful, wildly melodic and a rhythmic dynamo" — Bandcamp Daily Best of Jazz for April 2025
Sonic Chambers Quartet is a highly collaborative project based between New Orleans and New York City that blurs the lines between spontaneity and composition. Their performances are musical journeys that traverse extreme ranges of harmonies and densities in pursuit of catharsis.
The group began performing in 2023 and is co-led by New Orleans-based clarinetist and saxophonist Byron Asher and New York City-based saxophonist and clarinetist Tomas Majcherski. The multi-instrumentalists and composers have known each other and performed together for over 10 years. In addition to their shared experiences as musicians, their friendship is deepened by strikingly similar life paths prior to meeting – including past work in avant garde theater and formal studies in philosophy and religion. Their music is richly informed by these experiences, grounding the collaboration in dialogues around improvisation and composition, performance, art and collectivity.
Their debut recording Kiss of the Earth was released April 11, 2025 on noted Brooklyn-based adventurous music label 577 Records. It features long-time collaborators Matt Booth on bass and Doug Garrison on drums and was produced by Brian Seeger and recorded in February 2024 at Dockside Studio in rural southwest Louisiana.
