WALK is a suite of music about going for a stroll and thinking the same repetitive thoughts. Many different short, cyclical, repetitive and often meditative forms are trodden on. Sometimes the mood is mellow and the scenery along the walk can be enjoyed. Sometimes the walkers have stressful jobs and places to be and the walk is more manic.
Walk launches their album at Monday Night Confessions called 'Walk'. The album and band features some of Sydney's most interesting improvisers:
Toby Graham – vocals
Jack Stoneham – alto saxophone
Hilary Geddes – guitar
Linus Foley – piano
Jacques Emery – double bass
Ashley Stoneham – drums
BoNo is Bonnie Stewart (Voice/drums/FX) and Novak Manojlovic (Piano/FX) rifling through their sonic libraries and running the findings through a slew of pedals and extended processes in pursuit of stillness. Augmenting their renowned individual creative voices with electronic treatments, the duo draw on their multitude of experience as improvisors in different contexts, their occasional bush walks and their collaborations in Stewart’s ‘Bonniesongs’ to extract spinning soundscapes, subtle song forms and unique textures from old and new technologies.
