DAPPLEGRAY

adj. gray with an ill-defined mottling of a darker shade.
Dapplegray is Tara Sreekrishnan, Nava Dunkelman, and Jeanie-Aprille Tang, an electroacoustic trio focused in structured/free improvisation and film scoring. They have collaborated with Pauchi Sasaki, Fred Frith, John Zorn, and William Winant among others. Dapplegray explores the conversion of polar opposite frequencies, unfolding stories, dreams, impressions, and delusions. Their stark array of textures reveals the urgency of silence and chaos overcoming one another to create a musical space that shifts between dreaming and waking life. Their debut album will be released in early 2016 on Tzadik Records.
