SUMMARY:Cross Modulation Series: Ratchet + Garden Parties
DESCRIPTION:Garden Parties: Garden Parties is an experimental improvisational trio consisting of Jeff Kimmel\, Ben MacDonald\, and MT Coast. The group was formed with the aim of bringing friends together to share in the joy of making improvised music. Their music can be described as minimal\, jazz\, noise\, and ambient\, but the motivation behind the music is to create spaces for exploration. \n\n\n\nRatchet: This Chicago-based ensemble brings together four innovative musicians—Jeff Chan (woodwinds)\, Michael Perkins (keyboards)\, Chad Clark (guitar)\, and Ausberto Acevedo (bass)—each contributing a distinct voice to a collective sound rooted in improvisation\, experimentation\, and genre-defying creativity. In addition to their collaboration as musicians\, these four also are the founding members of Resonance Arts\, a not for profit venture seeking to provide a forum for the great jazz and improvised\, new music\, and experimental electronic music being made in Chicago.  \n\n\n\nJeff Chan is a saxophonist and composer whose work is deeply intertwined with the Asian American Creative Music Movement. Originally from California\, he relocated to Chicago in 2002\, where he became active in the city’s vibrant jazz and experimental scenes. \n\n\n\nMichael Perkins\, also known by his moniker Mr. 666\, is a multifaceted musician and composer active in Chicago’s punk\, electronic\, and jazz scenes since the late 1990s. His solo project\, Mr. 666\, showcases his affinity for analog synthesizers and dark electronic textures. \n\n\n\nChad Clark is a Chicago-based guitarist whose approach to the instrument emphasizes its physical properties and sonic possibilities. His playing explores the textures and vibrations of the guitar\, creating immersive soundscapes that challenge traditional notions of melody and rhythm. \n\n\n\nAusberto Acevedo is an experimental bassist\, composer\, improviser\, and educator based in Chicago\, Illinois. He has performed and recorded with a diverse array of musicians\, in a variety of contexts. Acevedo’s work spans genres from classical to jazz to freely improvised music. In addition to his performance\, he currently serves as the orchestra director at Evanston Township High School. \n\n\n\nTogether\, these four artists form a dynamic ensemble that blends their diverse backgrounds and influences into a cohesive and exploratory sound.
