What we say
What the label says:From 1981 to 1986, David Watson was active in the New Zealand music and art scene, as a member of Primitive Arts Group, appearing in the first NZ International Arts Fest, and he co-founded Braille Records to record the local improv music scene (which released twelve albums in the 80s). David Watson released three LPs on Braille, and did much to create an improv / noise-music scene where previously there was none. In 1987 he moved to New York and has performed in clubs, new music and concert venues throughout New York, Europe, Australia, NZ and Japan. From 1988 to 1995, David Watson played primarily guitar performances in New York with Ushio Torikai, Ikue Mori, Mark Ribot, Zeena Parkins, Kato Hideki, Cecil Taylor, William Hooker, Shelley Hirsch, Andrea Parkins plus many others, at venues like CBGB’s, Knitting Factory, and The Cooler. He was also curator for music series like Roulette, Experimental Intermedia, St. Marks Church, Greenwich House, Bang-on-a-Can, PS 1, and PS 122. He did a Japan tour with John Zorn and members of The Boredoms, Merzbow, Ground Zero, Makigami Koichi and others. ·New album ‘Throats’ features David Watson on bagpipe, Shelley Hirsch on vocals, and Makigami Koichi on vocals and jaw harp. ·CD cover design by Barbara Bloom. |
