Jasper Stadhouders - guitar
Sotu friend and bringing alot of energy into improvist music and the scene.
Specially for SOTU he put's together this trio, is going to be exciting!
Both on guitar and on bass , Jasper Stadhouders … rampages with a
lust for the ear-splitting volatility of Sharrock as well as Terrie Ex
and Thurston Moore, with dissonant howling, whirling in distortion,
thrashing and bending the strings until breaking point.”

Kevin Shea (Talibam!) - drums
"An innovative and
free-minded drummer, Shea has always imbued his playing with a humor and
flexibility that few in the jazz world have been able to match. While
perhaps best known for his work with the band Mostly Other People Do The
Killing, Shea has played on a host of other projects in the
Avant-Garde, Jazz, and other genres, including works by Rhys Chatham,
People (with Mary Halvorson), Peter Evans Quartet, Alan Wilkinson, and
the group Talibam!" - WKCR 89.9FM NY

Yuan Liu - visuals
drummer, director and a professional in the biochemistry field.
From Shandong province in China swirled with Japanese and Korean blood and a background in academic research and translation of Biochemistry (Reed College, Abacam Inc.) I am passionate about making new media art incorporating molecular techniques. Being on the design team of the ’08 Beijing Olympics opening ceremony focusing on gunpowder and movement art reconfirmed my interest in production work as well.
Enjoy improvising on drums/piano and make videos themed after molecular mechanics: gravity defying at the molecular level and the structure of alkaloids and Polish female athletes’ acetylcholine pathway.
Making videos of drummer Kevin Shea involving a milk mug stage and a time machine with some dapper jazz kong fu actions and a glass dome inside of a new age sci fi fantasy, as well as helping with his costume/light design/set/videography of an extreme rock opera.
