We are delighted to have this quartet, two of whom are from Croatia where there is a flourishing improvised music scene at ImproMondays in Zagreb. They are both highly regarded both as musicians and artistic directors of the ImproMondays International Festival of Improvised Music. Elations trio is made up of local double bassist David Leahy and Christoph Irmer (violin) and Mitch Heinrich (voice), both from Wuppertal, Germany. Their playing relationship began over 20 years ago when David was regularly touring Germany and Christoph was a regular visitor to the London Improvisers Orchestra. Mitch uses his published books of Dada poetry as a source material to improvise with in this trio's performance. STARNOSEDMOLE has been going since 2024 and is the duo of Nick Smith (percussion/effects) and Joanne Morrison -an experimental vocalist and improvising performer with a penchant for cat toys, costume and masks.
