Play 3 | MUTEK Montréal Photosensitivity varies from person to person; please note that while we do our best to identify potentially triggering performances ahead of time, many of our shows are audiovisual and could contain certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns, which may be triggering.

A week or so ago, FOREVER MEDITATIONS was released on streaming services and I'm still feeling mighty stoked after a rehearsal with collaborator and double bassist Freddy Speer today. 🥳
