earWorm

your friendly neighborhood sonic tour guides since 2008

 
earWorm is an improvisationally driven electroacoustic quartet of composer-performers. All of our music is performed live and, as such, presents an immediate and immersive experience of collective improvisation to the listener. Sonic landscapes are forged as musical actions develop and unfold. We playfully react in each moment of discovery. Our combined style is as varied as our collective musical experience, freely dancing within a panoply of jazz, blues, minimalism, electronica, trance, hip-hop, ambient, funk, rock, latin, classical, world, folk, and just about everywhere else in-between. Vivacious, creepy, transcendent, often funky and sometimes poignant, this is a music driven by process. This is earWorm. Members.htmlshapeimage_1_link_0
