Parkinson - electric guitar, harmonica
Listen on Myspace
This
trio began playing in the winter of 2007, working on Allison Cameron's
compositions based on traditional folk music. Some of the music borrows
tablature notation from traditional English folk tunes in a
non-conformist manner, using re-tuned guitars and banjo, new rhythm,
free rhythm and sometimes no rhythm to re-invent and create new
pieces out of the old work. Similar to the definition of a
palimpsest: a manuscript on which two or more successive texts have
been written, each one being erased to make room for the next with
the earlier writing incompletely erased and often legible. The group
combines approaches to composition and improvisation often found in
rock and jazz bands with that of contemporary music composition. |
