Guitar player and multi-instrumentalist Drew Gardner plays groove-based, improv-heavy psychedelic rock. His Flowers in Space band is based in New York City. He also plays guitar and vibraphone in Elkhorn and Jeffrey Alexander and The Heavy Lidders. Cygnus A is Drew Gardner's fourth solo record and features him playing zither, guitar and mbira. Writer Tyler Wilcox called it, "Hypnotic, minimal, beautiful—somewhere in between Laraaji and Alice Coltrane." This concert will feature a zither trio featuring Jesse Sheppard (Elkhorn) on bass and Scott Verrastro (Kohoutek) on drums.

Seawind of Battery is the ambient guitar project led by NYC musician Mike Horn, known for its expansive and serene soundscapes that act as a sonic balm for those in a state of existential anxiety. Following the introspective debut album *Clockwatching* in 2022, Horn’s latest release, *East Coast Cosmic Dreamscaper*, explores vibrant rhythms and lush arrangements, expanding the project’s sonic landscape. Collaborating with lap steel player Jarrod Annis, the album artfully blends cosmic country with uplifting energy. Through each track, Seawind of Battery invites listeners on a captivating journey, celebrating the beauty of connection and exploration.

Tarotplane is P.J. Dorsey from Baltimore MD. He has released a number of albums on labels such as 12th Isle, Patience/Impatience, and Constellation Tatsu. Working mostly with the guitar, his work has been described as “new school kosmiche." It has its feet in the classic style of '70s pioneers like Achim Reichel & Manuel Göttsching, but looks to put a more contemporary spin on that sound.
