Sound Praxis Presents Jakob Heinemann Kate Mohanty T Putnam Hill Dylan Lee Brown Nathan Hubbard Ryan Ebaugh Jonathan Piper

On November 5, Sound Praxis presents an evening of improvised music featuring Jakob Heinemann (LA) and Kate Mohanty (NY) playing solo sets and in quintet with Nathan Hubbard, Ryan Ebaugh, and Jonathan Piper, and the duo of T Putnam Hill and Dylan Lee Brown. Jakob Heinemann is a double bassist and composer based in Los Angeles. His practice draws on free improvisation, just intonation, and experimental sound, expressed through a broad array of mediums ranging from contemporary chamber ensembles to avant-jazz groups. Inspired by the possibility of creating complex soundscapes in collective frameworks, he’s interested in music as a communal experience, for both listeners and players. Deeply rooted in the creative music communities of Chicago, Wisconsin, and Los Angeles, his practice reflects a sustained engagement with place, listening, and timbre. Kate Mohanty is an avant-garde saxophonist based in Brooklyn and is a long time member of Brooklyn's DIY music scene. Kate is avidly committed to the process of improvisation & collaboration. "Disappear Here," Mohanty’s second solo effort, was released in October 2019 on friendship tapes. Kate’s albums are completely improvised upon recording. Mohanty's debut solo recording, "The Double Image," was released via GP Stripes in April 2017. In addition to solo efforts, Kate has participated in a wide variety of artistic projects; including scoring short films, accompanying dance & theater performances, as well as appearing on numerous albums for a wide variety of music projects. In addition to music, Kate is a writer and published a solo book of poetry entitled "Back from Brooklyn" in 2011. This presentation is generously hosted by Folk Arts Rare Records!
