A few weeks ago I returned to the intimate MKE-Ultra club on historic Mitchell Street on the near south side of Milwaukee to record a night of avant garde jazz and experimental music. The headliner for the evening was a group consisting of a pair of musicians from Chicago (percussionist Alexander Adams and guitarist Jeff Goulet) who teamed up with Kansas City-based Seth Davis on guitar and electronics.
It was a joyous, skronky uninterrupted 31-minute set of high energy and inventive music which I found exhilarating. Goulet and Davis eschewed traditional virtuosic guitar pyrotechnics in favor of doling out complex textures and tones. Adams more than held his own against the sonic onslaught of the guitarists.
