MANTIS is Anders Svanoe (sax), Brad Townsend (bass) and Nick Zielinski (drums).

Mutated in the radioactive pressure cooker of covid-era late-stage capitalism, MANTIS uses its triangular head, bulging compound eyes and elongated fore-legs to sow precious seeds of doubt in the musical status quo. Unhinging its gigantic mandibles to latch on to its prey, it sprays the acid of anarchy to dissolve oppressive man-made order and allow space for nature to reform order in her own image.

Kowalski/Grimm/Robekin electroacoustic trio mingles sounds from the drum set, bassoon, cello, and electronics. This unorthodox combo deconstructs sounds from a variety of traditions and leans into the improvising avant-garde.

We have ramps we can put it place for anyone who needs them. Please let us know if we may assist you in accessing the space.
