Flandrew Fleisenberg (Percussion)
Philadelphia based Flandrew Fleisenberg plays percussion on an ever
changing assortment of ephemera and modified drum parts coaxing texture
and tone both familiar and bizarre. Attentive to room resonance,
ambience and collaborator, Fleisenberg playfully utilizes sound and
presence to explore space, time, and relationships. A graduate of the
School of the Museum of Fine Arts (Boston) with a focus in conceptual
art, he is musically self-taught and has developed a cadre of
idiosyncratic techniques that are all his own. Flandrew has been
involved in the free improvisation sound and movement community since
2001 performing solo, in ad-hoc improv groupings, and in set projects in
venues small and large across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. http://lifeoffleisenberg.blogspot.com/
