Tracking The Odds: Fred Frith

Tracking The Odds: Fred Frith. (Dec 23, 2024)

Produced by Roulette Intermedium.

The duo project of Fred Frith and Sudhu Tewari, joined here in a trio with Danish saxophonist Lotte Anker. Frith and Tewari play adapted and processed guitars, home-made acoustic and electronic instruments, and captured sounds. Instruments included here: the Portable Street Piano, the Post Hole Tone Music Box, the No Strings Guitar, Sudhu’s Infernal Spring Thing, and the Superstrut Bandsaw Bass. The trio represents a merging of improvisation and experimental traditions: Frith (of Henry Cow, Art Bears, Skeleton Crew, Massacre), Tewari (known for self-governing musical systems and self-built musical instruments), and Anker (a key figure in European improvisation and experimental music).
