August 10 * 7pm * $10-20 * TICKETS

Michael R. Bernstein lives and works in Takoma Park, Maryland, where he plays with light, sound, food, and dirt. In former lives he was a Leopard, a Knife, and was the co-boss of a gang of cassette slinging street toughs known as "Heavy Tapes."

Matchstick Percussion is a Maryland-based percussion quartet dedicated to new music and expanding the percussion repertoire. Through performance, they aim to promote opportunity for underrepresented artists, bridge the gap in racial and gender inconsistencies, and advocate for equity in the medium through collaborative performances and educational outreach.

Marcia Bassett is a NYC-based musician and artist known for her innovative and unconventional approach to music. Her work explores areas of sound collage, improvisation, and immersive audio-visual environments. Whether working with traditional instruments or electronic media, Bassett constantly pushes the boundaries of sound and image to create a heady sonic interplay of otherworldly narratives that are equal parts trance and critique. She is the founder of Yew Recordings.

CHUCK BETTIS was raised in the fertile harDCore soil, nourished within Baltimore's enigmatic avant garde gatherings, and currently blossoming in New York's experimental realms. His unique blend of electronics and throat has led him into various collaborations with great musicians from around the globe.
