Bootstrapping builds a self-organizing sonic system from nothing. The seed is the impulse, the mechanism is improvisation.
Three masters of bootstrapping join forces at NuBlu:
on electric bass: Melvin Gibbs, member of Harriet Tubman and collaborator with Sonny Sharrock, Arto Lindsay, Ronald Shannon Jackson.
on drums: Don McKenzie, work with Vernon Reid, P. Diddy, Marc Ribot, Cecil Taylor
on guitar: Elliott Sharp, innovator and composer, collaborated with Radio Sinfonie Frankfurt, Debbie Harry, Master Musicians of Jajouka, Nustrat Fateh-Ali Khan
