ERIC ARN

American guitarist Eric Arn and his group Primordial Undermind have tirelessly mined the nether regions of avant-rock for the past two decades. An open membership, and a restlessness to stay put has resulted in a steady progression from distorted, psychedelic rock overload to full-blown free instrumental music, and of course everything in between. Since settling in Vienna in 2005, Eric has continued to perform with the Undermind, as well as playing solo, in duos with Stefan Kushima/Cruise Family, Cam Deas and Vanessa Arn, as a member of the Vienna Improvisors Orchestra, Tempel Solaire/Tempel Lunaire, and the Magic Carpathians, and as a regular featured player in Marco Eneidi's Nenuvi Orchestra. He has released his first solo album, 'Points of Fissure', on Feathered Coyote Records in April 2013.

"The strange shapes he was making were flying in the face of tradition beautifully, harnessed by a resonant drone but leaving lots of space for the sounds to breathe... he broke the rhythmic thrust into a series of eddies, swirling patterns, his fingers all over the place; you could tell this man was really having a ball." - Cloudboy, Rottenmeats blog

"somewhere between a mostly unplugged Tom Carter and the classicism of James Blackshaw... Eric Arn is clearly becoming something of a guitar virtuoso." - Michael Wehunt, Foxy Digitalis

JON COLLIN

Jon Collin is a guitarist performing both solo and in numerous other projects including The Whole Voyald, Vampire Blues, John Fante, and more. He runs the label Winebox Press.

"a UK slide guitar improviser who lays down a set of live six-string improv that floats, picks, rings and quivers with the tortured soul at the heart of the experimental delta. His tracks may seem unmoored but they ebb and flow with a kind of nighttime intensity that's only companion seems to be the tape hiss that creeps steadily under the set." Raven Sings the Blues
