Bloom Project

Bloom Project is a spirited collaboration between pianist Thollem Mcdonas, multi-saxophonist and electronician Rent Romus, instrument builder Steven Baker, and drummer and found-object player Jon Brumit. The music of the Bloom Project features free group improvisations as well as interpretations of numerous textual and graphical scores offered by the group. The sonic construct of Bloom Project is an organic construction and expression of solos, duos, and trios combining disparate and divergent stylistic histories with a sense of immediacy, intensity, and spontaneous inventiveness.
