For some years Charlie Collins and John Jasnoch had been exploring the possibilities of adding a third member to their long-standing duo. Within minutes of Beatrix becoming that third person it was obvious that the resulting trio was something quite special.
Their sound is characterized by a unique combination of “world” instruments (ud, ukelele, mbira) and 20th century inventions (theremin, waterphone, etc) within a purely improvised music.
The sounds span and incorporate several genres in highly original ways while their improvisations aim for an event that can be shared, enjoyed and
understood by others.
Beatrix Ward-Fernandez: violin
John Jasnoch: 12 string guitar, ‘ud
Charlie Collins: drums, mbiras, percussion
