Jeremy Young is an improvising sonic artist and electroacoustic composer from Tiohtià:ke/Montreal, and a member of Sontag Shogun and Cloud Circuit among other projects. In 2021, Young released, Amaro, a solo LP built around electroacoustic compositions and improvisations using oscillators and tape, organized in duet performances with multidisciplinary artists Pauline Kim Harris (String Noise, John Zorn), Ida Toninato (Ensemble Supermusique, Jane/KIN), Markus Floats (Constellation), Dolphin Midwives (Beacon Sound), Deanna Radford (Cloud Circuit), Johannes Bergmark (Fylkingen), filmmaker Tomonari Nishikawa, and the legendary Vito Ricci.

Here at Kanuti Gildi SAAL, Young will perform improvised collage sketches for solo guitar on 1/4" magnetic tape using two open-reel machines and 42~ tape loops, based on source material from his latest record, August Tape Sketches, out now on Meakusma.
