Originally from Arlingon, Virginia, Gareth Flowers is an electro-acoustic trumpeter, know for "shimmering vibrato" and "wide-ranging lines" (NYTimes, June '10) and has performed with the acclaimed International Contemporary Ensemble (ICE) since 2003. Although his musical journey has included performances with the major orchestras of San Francisco, New York, Philadelphia, and Seoul, he relishes making music on an intimate scale, and performs with ICE, the TILT Creative Brass Band, the Argento New Music Project, and the Tri-Centric Foundation’s (Anthony Braxton) orchestra. He often performs in theatrical productions on Broadway, and has recorded for many fine musicians including Gabriel Kahane, Anthony Coleman, and duYun. As a composer/performer, he has performed his own eccentric electro-acoustic Inventions at the Clark Studio Theater of Lincoln Center, and the Tank.
Steven Beck, piano, is a graduate of the Juilliard School, where his teachers were Seymour Lipkin and Peter Serkin. Mr. Beck made his debut with the National Symphony Orchestra. He toured Japan as a soloist with the New York Symphonic Ensemble, and has appeared with the New Juilliard Ensemble, Sequitur, and the Virginia Symphony.

Trumpeter, composer, and producer, Josh Frank leads an eclectic musical life in New York City. Over the past few years Josh's engagements have ranged from writing music for companies such as Corcoran, and Vornado Realty, to producing musical events for Rock and Republic Jeans. As a trumpet player, Josh has performed with pop artists such as Sufjan Stevens, members of The National, BOYZ II MEN and regularly plays with the ground-breaking ensemble The Knights. As a producer, Josh has worked on classical albums released on Sony Classical and produces regularly with engineer Bill Siegmund at Digital Island Studios. Josh has started his own company, Galien Productions, which creates and licenses music for media.
The music of Herbert L. Clarke is delightfully lighthearted, tuneful, and virtuosic, and was often heard during summertime in parks all across the country, usually performed by a community band, in a truly Americana fashion.
The Batteries Duo is the first and only electro-acoustic trumpet duo of it's kind in New York's creative music scene. Using primarily trumpets and samplers, the Batteries duo creates a unique breed of sound art. Drawing on inspiration from Medeski, Martin and Wood to Bill Frisell to electronic artists such as Deadelus, and the Books, The Batteries duo combines found sounds and sampled material which they mashup against their virtuosic and vibrational trumpet playing to create a unique variety of nu jazz/indie-electronica/post-classicism. Their set will be in support of their late-summer release of Les Amusements, their freshman EP. Frank J Oteri, Host. http://www.thegflo.com
