Gordon Kurowski considers his compositions as freeform aural paintings, each tone a stroke of the brush. Frequency and color a synesthetic experience. Gordon brings his history of playing classical, rock, jazz, and free improvisation to bear on each performance to share the emotion and experience of a moment in time with listeners. Gordon uses traditional and electronic instruments both analog and digital in the construction of his sonic environments. p.s. – an Aubstraction is an aural abstract.

Laura Feathers is an experimental sound artist whose compositional process relies heavily on improvisation using synthesizers and loopers. Her improvisations can be found on SoundCloud under the name Magic Sun. Laura has performed with the Dark Circuits Bunker Orchestra, whose album Ten Minutes Late with No Bus in Sight and No Taxi Either was released on Gold Bolus Recordings in 2017. She is also featured on the recently released Dark Circus Orchestra Tribute to Phill Niblock Concert at Roulette Intermedium in Brooklyn on Philippe Petit’s label Modulisme available on Bandcamp.

Johnny Lancia realizes blissed-out ambient works and concerts under the name Huron. His music is filled with heady drones and intriguing rhythms that reflect the natural world – filtered through a variety of modular synthesizers, analog electronics and digital manipulation processes. Lancia’s synthesizers, a paradise of hidden synergies, conspire with the composer to realize a beautiful, untouchable sonic realm – as electrical currents spill out into the world with a charged dreamy glow.

Bowerbird is thrilled to welcome back Laraaji, a key figure in the evolution of ambient music whose distinctive sound has been captivating listeners for decades. Philadelphia-born and New Jersey-raised, Laraaji has pursued spiritual transcendence through music since the mid-1970s. After years of developing an aesthetic shaped by Eastern philosophies and transcendental research in his longtime Harlem home, Laraaji’s breakthrough came when Brian Eno discovered him busking in Washington Square Park in 1979, improvising celestial meditations on his electric zither. This encounter led to a collaboration on Eno’s influential Ambient series, resulting in the 1980 album Day of Radiance.

Since then, Laraaji has become a defining figure in new age and ambient music, known for his commitment to hand-crafted sounds over synthesizers and his embrace of a human presence in his performances. Whether playing monochord instruments, singing, or using electronics-kissed percussion, his music remains rooted in a cosmic African-American tradition. His soundscapes are as hypnotically beautiful as they are rich with moments of tension and dissonance, bringing depth to his trance-inducing explorations. For over four decades, Laraaji’s work has continued to evolve, inviting listeners into deep states of reflection while remaining grounded in a deeply personal musical journey.
