This acoustic quartet breaks into the meanders of Anglo-saxon folk music. It explores, scrapes and digs into this musical matter in order to extract its musical essence and to look at it through the eyes of unlabelled improvisators. The melodies are caught into the air. We could have hummed them without thinking. We think we know them bet we’re unable to find their origins. Those melodies which are taken out of their context, finally finds themselves stacked on each other, declaimed or just suggested. Sometimes they’re buried under a rain of raw matter, sometimes they’re sowed by a minimalist blow.
Bedmakers gathers four musicians which have each singular and polymorph universes. The anglophile saxophonist / clarinetist Robin Fincker (Whahay, Vincent Courtois’ Mediums,Surnatural Orchestra) and his partner in the Whahay trio, the drummer Fabien Duscombs are joined by 8 chords in the persons of the violinist Mathieu Werchowski and his electroacoustic drifts and the Irish doublebassist Dave Kane.
