Mike Walter has a substantial track record as an improvising musician, playing tenor and soprano saxophones, synthesizer, chaos box and who knows what else with bands such as Ape, Jerico Orchestra, One King Poets and countless others. He has now added the gentle melodeon to his arsenal.
Paul Taylor has played heaps of music: Latin, African, jazz, brass bands, shenanigans with The Pogues and Dexy’s Midnight Runners and numberless other things. He now runs a trombone trio, The Blowpipes, and is busily performing trombone poetry everywhere.
In this unique combination – ruM – they fling free improv at folk music and bring joy and bewilderment to anyone in earshot.
