AVANTDANCELECTRIC Shows!
Posted on Tuesday, August 31st, 2010 by Melissa

A show debuting new music I have been doing quietly (and not so quietly at times).... AVANTDANCEELECTRIC is mix of avant garde electronica. Some VERY ambient listening pieces and some pure and simple DANCE remixes of my music I've traditionally been performing as a band or solo... In lieu of a recent hand injury I've decided to continue with most of the tour dates I have booked, 'cast' aside any reservations & do something completely new and unfamiliar. Zoning out and dancing your own way are highly encouraged.

Front of The Curtain Festival
Posted on Tuesday, August 10th, 2010 by Melissa

My second experimental piece to incorporate dance, Hadean 1 was born out of a collaboration with NC choreographer Alex Smith and his work, Relinquish: The Intermediary of Knowing and Being.
This will be our NC debut of the collaborative work.
