JeJaWeDa Quartet

About this event

Instigated by Jaap Blonk, the quartet JaJeWeDa debuted in the spring of 2019 with a series of concerts in the US Northeast. The band features the great Dutch sound poet and improvisor Jaap Blonk, trombone virtuoso Jeb Bishop, and the versatile and powerful rhythm section of bassist Damon Smith and percussionist Weasel Walter. The sonic result of this alchemical gamble is a wide-open, unruly field of play where anything can and will happen. The band's performances run the gamut from delicate chamber textures to cracked-video-game burbling to all-out electronic meltdowns. A 2019 concert by the group at Pioneer Works in Brooklyn, New York resulted in two releases on Balance Point Acoustics.
