This week, some very punchy, acoustic free improv. Propelled by 2 drumkits augmented with saxophone and guitar, the M-B Project is a Brisbane/Melbourne collaboration comprising some of Australia's most exciting, emerging improvisers, straddling the worlds of free jazz, abstract improv and avant-hardcore. Both recently returned from Japan, Honeybrook and Baxter reprise their new acoustic duo that channels the Interstellar Space of Ali/Coltrane through the filter of extreme, grinding metal and noise. And, upping the percussive anti, a drumkit quartet featuring the aforementioned joined by Melbourne wunder-schlagwerker, Gareth Thomson.• The M-B Project, featuring: James McLean (drumkit), Tim Green (Bris) (drumkit), James Wengrow (Bris) (guitar) and Jon Smeathers (saxophone)
• Lloyd Honeybrook (alto saxophone) and Sean Baxter (drumkit)
• Gareth Thomson (drumkit), James Mclean (drumkit), Tim Green (drumkit) and Sean Baxter (drumkit)
