Programme
Jon Collin and Aonghus McEvoy
Jon Collin and Aonghus McEvoy will join us for a double bill on Friday, 12 September 2025 at 9pm. Both musicians bring unconventional methods to their experimental and ambient music.
Jon Collin makes DIY music, sound, and art using stringed instruments, long tones, found objects, field recordings, and friction. His recorded practice is based around interactions with the world through recordings made in non-studio locations. He has released records on Discreet Music (Sweden), Feeding Tube Records (USA), and DDS (UK).
His collaborative work includes three LPs with Demdike Stare; releases of live collaborations with Bill Nace, Sarah Hughes, and Kelly Jayne Jones; and a recent trio record with Troth on A Colourful Storm (Australia). He runs the record label Early Music and ran the tape label project Winebox Press. You can listen to Collin’s music here.
Aonghus McEvoy is a composer, improviser, and guitar player based in Dublin. Aonghus’ work moves between collaborations with improvisers, indeterminate scores for small ensembles, and skewed takes on folk idioms.
He has performed alongside musicians such as Rhodri Davies, Annette Krebs, Weston Olencki, Cora Venus Lunny, Damo Suzuki, David Maranha, Ailbhe Nic Oireachtaigh, Marcin Pietruszewski, Tristan Clutterbuck, Ricardo Jacinto, Adam Pultz Melbye, and David Lacey and has worked with composers including Conal Ryan, Jack Callahan, Jorge Boehringer, and Eva-Maria Houben. You can listen to McEvoy’s music here.
Tickets are €10 and available here.
