Never Enough Hope is like a family reunion and an all-star team. Organized and led by Toby Summerfield, the group’s music is meant to reflect the values and aesthetics of the communities the bandmembers hail from. Complicated rock music, improvised music, contemporary chamber music- all styles where collaboration and cooperation are as important as composition. The band is a group of old friends brought together under the umbrella of creative community.
Gojogo is an unusual quartet that combines the Western sounds of classical and jazz with the rhythmic traditions of India.Founded in 2003, they are dedicated to creating innovative music that is accessible and captivating.Gojogo performs original music composed collaboratively by the four performers, each drawing upon a different musical tradition and training. Compositions feature improvisation over structured forms, creating opportunities for spontaneity and a medium to present each unique instrument.The result is a sound that defies the borders of any specific genre.
