Cathedral Becomes Tomb is a sound expression from Wisconsin based artist Barry Paul Clark (adoptahighway, Tontine Ensemble, Field Report). The expression includes double bass in combination with effected audio signals. It draws inspiration from his lived experiences in conjunction with mental health therapy. The catalyst is an attempt to sonically manifest living with anxiety and major depressive disorders. Live performances are multimedia improvisations that utilize a mixture of projection imagery, film pieces and Barry’s own recorded footage, with a visual signal affected by the sounds being produced in the performance.
Genre can be implemented as a tool of organization and for the comfort of an unknown, so for genre category purposes, Cathedral Becomes Tomb shares sonic spaces connected to drone, improvisation, glacial maximalism, deep listening, and experimental electronic, with techniques derivative of contemporary chamber/classical music.

Jonah Parzen-Johnson makes music for baritone saxophone that challenges listeners with experimental textures and embraces them with warm approachable melodies. He is a long-time Brooklyn resident, but his circular breathing, multi-phonics and inclusively experimental baritone saxophone style owe a debt to Chicago, the city where he was raised. Jonah’s devotion to an almost vocal approach places him in new territory for the instrument. His performances are a deeply intimate experience, as he endeavors to share who he is, how he sees our world, and the temporary moments of community that we can all embrace together. Since 2015, Jonah has toured hundreds of thousands of miles playing solo baritone saxophone. He has performed on 4 continents, and in over a dozen countries.
