Event Details
Band Bio:
Saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist Dustin Laurenzi crafts a distinctly personal approach to improvisation and composition, drawing on the roots of jazz, folk, and creative music. Renowned for his work with groups like Twin Talk and Natural Language—and collaborations with internationally respected artists like Bill Callahan—Laurenzi’s emotive style and adventurous sensibility have made him a key voice in Chicago’s thriving music community.
Dan Bitney is best known for his work with the influential band Tortoise, as well as Isotope 217 and Spectralina. Bitney’s sonic explorations span avant-garde electronic, rock, and improvisational realms, continually pushing boundaries and inspiring new directions in contemporary music.
Daniel Van Duerm anchors the group with deeply textured keyboards and electronics. His unique voice draws from experimental, jazz, and multi-genre ensembles. Best known for his work with KVL which features another original member of Isotope 217.
Together, Laurenzi, Bitney, and Van Duerm synthesize their wide-ranging influences and improvisational mastery, creating music that is adventurous, boundary-pushing, and unmistakably rooted in Chicago’s innovative spirit. Their trio serves as a powerful platform for exploration, spontaneity, and genuine creative synergy.
