Whitney Johnson, Lia Kohl, Macie Stewart
Finding equilibrium in an ever evolving practice of improvisation and collective composition, the trio of Whitney Johnson, Lia Kohl, and Macie Stewart traverse a new sonic space in the spirit of play and intuitive experimentation. Three voices and three string instruments – viola, cello, and violin, respectively – create an organic, intertwined sound that can be both singular and astonishingly multitudinous. The trio work in a unique combination of completely free improvisation and careful production, using multiple tape machines and effects to re-imagine improvised material into meticulously crafted compositions.
