Shane Parish is a guitarist, composer, improviser and interpreter. He is the leader of the avant-rock band Ahleuchatistas, a member of the Bill Orcutt Guitar Quartet, and a renowned acoustic soloist. Parish’s 2024 album, “REPERTOIRE” (Palilalia Records), is a collection of solo acoustic fingerstyle arrangements of works by musical giants like Alice Coltrane, John Cage, Aphex Twin, Kraftwerk, Ornette Coleman, Charles Mingus, and more. Parish first gained widespread attention as a solo guitarist upon the release of his 2016 album, Undertaker Please Drive Slow, on Tzadik Records. 

Regan Bowering’s solo work explores the rhythmic and percussive potential at the intersections of improvisation, sound art and experimental composition. Her performance practice incorporates various combinations of drums, objects, amplification, microphones and feedback. She released her debut album in on Bezirk tapes in 2023, Solos for _ _ _ _ Spaces, which was described as “a play of contrasts, contradicting voluminous expressions with confined phrases, taming resounding feedback with faint percussive flutters, but one that feels driven by the desire to craft electrifying drama rather than pure autotelic dissonance.” (The Quietus). She is one third of a collaborative project with Li Song and Conal Blake, with two releases: “2 Movements” (Feedback Moves, 2024) and "Music for Snare Drums and Portable Speakers" (Infant Tree, 2023). Regan is currently a visiting scholar at Columbia University in NYC, as part of her ongoing practice-based PhD at Goldsmiths, University of London.

Heather Stebbins is a DC-based composer and multi-instrumentalist whose work explores porous boundary between memory and emotion. She foregrounds cello, synthesizer, and an array of other electronics, creating music that is imbued with patience, unfolding slowly over the course of multi-movement suites. Her most recent album, On Separation, was released by Outside Time in May.
