This Music (TM) Presents is a Boston musician’s initiative to recognize the creativity of many who haven’t been given the stage as leaders, often younger than the Jazz scene veterans; those with acknowledgment who can create a new project and musical ideas; and the unsung “gems” who aren’t in the public’ eye and deserve to be. The emphasis is on the freer forms, the adventurous (to help find a “home”).

Tonight’s Performance:
Gían Pérez - Solo Guitar
Gían Pérez is a multi-disciplinary artist, improviser, and composer from Puerto Rico, based in Brooklyn, NY, whose work focuses on the dissection, subversion, and fermentation of form. Recently, Pérez has worked with artists like Marc Edwards, gabby fluke-mogul, Brandon Lopez, among others. He has performed at venues like The Stone, Downtown Music Gallery, and Joe’s Pub. By extending the guitar to its extremes as a physical material, Pérez denatures the electric guitar beyond its ascribed historical identity, envisioning a musical language that was never conquered and had been left instead to govern itself. His next solo guitar album, Ñ, will be available on Ossicles Records early this year.
