first set

CHRISTINE BARD + JIM PUGLIESE

The long-awaited reunion of Duo Bard and Pugliese in Concert
a.k.a. “The Mighty Drums of Christine Bard and Jim Pugliese”

Bard and Pugliese play percussion that creates other worlds and takes
you on a guided tour. They will make sounds move through IPR, to
surround and suspend the listener on the pulse of their own Chi.
Pitched and “non-pitched” instruments will play pieces of precision
and
beauty. Deep drums will take care of the rest.

second set

Julian Bennett Holmes was born in New York in 1991. He has been the
drummer in the bands Stungun, Soñar (which debuted at Issue Project
Room) and Fiasco. He co-founded (with Lucian Buscemi) the independent
record label Beautiful Records (beautifulrecords.org,
myspace.com/beautifulrecordsny) in 2005, which has since released three
albums – two Soñar recordings and one recording of Care Bears on
Fire’s Confuse Me, which was released in November 2006.
