[NewMusicEvents] Songlines: Paul Lytton and Nate Wooley at Mills Oct. 20

[Steed Cowart]

The Mills College Music Department and Songlines Series present:

PAUL LYTTON and NATE WOOLEY: Performance

Monday, October 20th
7:30 pm
Ensemble Room, Music Building

Admission: FREE

Percussionist Lytton and trumpeter Wooley met in 2003, and despite their difference in age and usual milieu, they consistently push their improvisations into focused, dissonant counterpoint. Paul Lytton, known primarily as the drummer for the long running Evan Parker trio, has been forging new ground as a free jazz percussionist, electronicist, and maker of instruments for almost 40 years. Nate Wooley got a solid jazz education from his father in a northwest coast dance band, but eschewed the tradition of jazz trumpet to concentrate on extreme sound, touring and recording with such hard noise and rock groups as Melee, Graveyards, and Akron/Family. This year they are on the road again in the Western United States and in Europe, both as a duo and in a trio with violinist and electronicist, Phil Wachsmann.
