Body

Hermione Johnson is a pianist and composer from Tāmaki Makaurau. Her performances centre largely on extended and prepared piano techniques, focusing on the timbral qualities of the instrument, and drawing out a range of voices with contrasting patterns and phrases in different registers. As an improviser she is a significant force in the New Zealand experimental music scene, performing regularly throughout the country. Hermione has released a number of albums on international labels including her 2020 solo release 'Tremble' on Relative Pitch records.

 

Riki Gooch and Anthony Donaldson are two the most loved drummers to reside in Te Whanganui-a-Tara. Long-time collaborators, this may well be their first duo outing.

 

A third set will feature a trio of all three artists.


NOTE: this is a Pyramid Club offsite show, taking place at Meow.

Presale tickets through Under the Radar.
