Founded in 2015 by composer/performers Noah Meites, Dan Marschak, Hitomi Oba, and Nick DePinna, L.A. Signal Lab is a creative music collective dedicated to commissioning, premiering, and recording stylistically diverse new works with a focus on bridging the divide between jazz and classical music.

Inspired by the richly diverse musical culture of Los Angeles, Signal Lab strives to bring together L.A.’s varied musical communities through programs that showcase the talents of the city’s most exciting young performers. Recent and future collaborations include performances with Aperture Duo (Linnea Powell and Adrianne Pope), Maggie Hasspacher, Hocket Duo (Sarah Gibson and Thomas Kotcheff), and Ross Garren.

This concert features music from their debut album, “Whisper and Howl,” featuring some of Los Angeles’s most in demand and creative musicians, including Ross Garren, Maggie Hasspacher, Adrianne Pope, and Linnea Powell, alongside the composers.

L.A. Signal Lab is particularly committed to ensuring the continued life of the new pieces it commissions through recording, touring, and educational outreach while cultivating a welcoming and supportive atmosphere for audiences, performers, and composers.
