Event Navigation
Pre-dating Sonic Youth, Red Square have been avant–rock, free improv trailblazers since 1974. Reforming in 2008, the trio have introduced their experimental mash-up to Café Oto, Vortex and Resonance FM audiences. They also recently captivated the OCM Open audience with their exhilarating pace and incredible skill.
Ian Staples (electric guitars), Jon Seagroatt (soprano saxophone, bass clarinet, flute & electronics) and Lee Smith (drums and percussion) combine the worlds of psychedelia, metal and avant-jazz. From mystical soundscapes, to turbulent rhythms set against atonal guitar riffs and fractious melodies, Red Square create a chaotic and infectious sonic explosion.
