Founded in March 2023, microplastique is an innovative quartet based in Chicago, featuring multi-instrumentalists Ben Zucker, Molly Jones, Josh Harlow, and Adam Shead. Under the direction of bandleader Adam Shead, the ensemble blends diverse skills and experiences to create a dynamic and eclectic sound, drawing on a wide range of influences from the Art Ensemble of Chicago to Misha Mengelberg to Pauline Oliveros. On December 6, 2024, they released their highly anticipated debut album, Blare Blow Bloom!, which was featured on the front page of Bandcamp as a "New and Notable" release and earned a 4-star review from Lawrence Preyer of All About Jazz. With their energetic performances and bold musical approach, microplastique has quickly gained national recognition, establishing themselves as one of the most exciting and innovative groups on the contemporary music scene.
