"Ryan Krause is a musician based in Ridgewood, New York, where he works as a performer, composer, MC, and bandleader. His work largely focuses on the human voice, with contexts ranging from performance art and experimental opera to rapping and stand up comedy, conceptual karaoke and improvised dance music. Krause studied Composition at the New England Conservatory and Literature at CUNY-Hunter. He's currently one half of the duo Lipchitz and frontperson of the big band Dear Leader."

"David Grollman is a percussionist from NYC who performs freely improvised music. He performs in art galleries, tiki bars, and venues of curious ambience made more curious by his mongrel sounds. David bows, scrapes, blows, slaps, rubs, caresses, abuses, and generally tests the limits of his instrument. Anything is game. Anything may be a participant if the musical conversation calls for it. Artist, instrument, audience, and environment become ambiguous terms, conspiring in a theatrical exploration of chance dynamics and serendipitous exchanges."
