Setting is Nathan Bowles (solo/trio, Pelt, Black Twig Pickers) on strings, keys, tapes, and percussion; Jaime Fennelly (Mind Over Mirrors, Peeesseye) on harmoniums, synthesizers, and piano zither; and Joe Westerlund (solo, Califone, Sylvan Esso, Jake Xerxes Fussell) on drums, percussion, and metallophones. Setting established its own setting and found its footing in regularly scheduled improvisational sessions outside Westerlund’s home in Durham, North Carolina, beginning in 2021. Chuck Johnson is a California-based composer, producer, and musician. He approaches his work with an ear towards finding faults and instabilities that might reveal latent beauty, with a focus on pedal steel guitar, experimental electronics, alternate tuning systems, and composing for film and television. Recordings of his work have been published by VDSQ, Thrill Jockey, Temporary Residence, Kompakt, Ghostly, and Three Lobed, among others.
Cole Pulice (they/them) is a saxophonist and composer living in Oakland, California. Performing primarily as a solo saxophonist, Coles music blends the saxophone with electroacoustic signal processing, contemplative improvisation, and playful experimentalism to create vast and surreal sonic landscapes that mutate and expand the sonic language of the saxophone. Coles music and artistic practice is often attuned to exploring, uncovering, and working through alternative conceptions and sensations of time, gender, dream, and memory.
