Artist Biographies
• Show Bio for Christina Carter "Christina Carter was born in the bayou city of Houston, TX on November 19th, 1968, and co-founded Charalambides there in 1991. Ever since, she has mined her own vein of sound-as-music utilizing extended improvisational vocal passages & has investigated the voice as vehicle for the ephemerality of the word through the immediacy of the sensing body, ground, lungs, throat, mouth, tongue & sky." ^ Hide Bio for Christina Carter • Show Bio for David Menestres "David Menestres is a bassist, composer, and writer currently living in the Piedmont region of North Carolina. David is the founder/leader of the Polyorchard ensemble and is the host and producer of Tone Science, a weekly two-hour radio show on taintradio.org since 2010." ^ Hide Bio for David Menestres • Show Bio for Andrew Weathers "Andrew Weathers (b.1988) is a composer and improviser originally from Chapel Hill, NC and currently based in Littlefield, TX. His work engages with notions of place, tradition, repetition, and spirit, splitting the difference between folk music and Land Art. Weathers studied composition at UNC-Greensboro and electronic music at Mills College in Oakland, CA. A consistent presence in the underground music scene over the past decade, Weathers' work covers a wide spectrum from solo acoustic guitar to electronic noise. He also performs and records regularly with Tender Crust, Wind Tide, Satin Spar, Tamarisk, Llano Estacado Monad Band, Tethers and Real Life Rock & Roll Band. Weathers also produces recordings for the Full Spectrum, Other Minds, and Rural Situationism record labels, curates the Longitudes music series at CO-OPt Research + Projects in Lubbock, TX and works as a freelance mixing and mastering engineer." ^ Hide Bio for Andrew Weathers
