V.Vecker / Boat Burning / Jeff Surak

Saturday November 23 * 7pm * $10-20 * TICKETS

V.Vecker (b. Keith Wecker, 1983) is an American Canadian composer, performer and technologist whose music explores sound through atmospheric and repetitious systems of layering. Utilizing long form compositional structures alongside inspiration drawn from visual arts and the landscape of North America, his music finds a common space between electronic music and spiritual jazz. Drawing on inspiration from these extramusical  sources, the character imbued in V.Vecker’s sound is highlighted by the diversity of the acts he has shared the stage with (Tim Hecker, Clark, Sumac, Thundercat, Wolf Eyes, Six Organs of Admittance, Goblin, Lori  Goldston and Sun Araw) as well as the projects he has been selected to perform in (Anthony Braxton, Glenn Branca and William Hooker). He has been featured prominently at many Vancouver based festivals such as  the Vancouver International Jazz Festival, New Forms Festival and Music Waste. V.Vecker is currently is based in Warrensburg, Missouri where he is completing his MA in Music Technology. New Works cassette is out  Fall 2024 on Tool Use.

Founded by Andras Fekete (1956-2018), BOAT BURNING plays "maximum minimalism" -- elemental phrases played by many instruments -- to create staggering towers of densely stacked harmonics. The resulting sound combines the wide-screen sweep of classical with the sheer physical thrall of punk.
