Event in Room: Garden Room
With Meredith Bates, Pamela Attariwala, Lukas Pearse, and Kim Barlow
About the musicians: Vancouver’s Meredith Bates is an award-winning violinist, known for her elegant and virtuosic sound. She is a versatile fiddler versed in acoustic and processed sounds, and improvised, classical, and traditional folk repertoire. Bates has been recording and touring around the world for 20 years in ensembles such as Pugs & Crows, Gentle Party, Dyad, Josh Zubot Strings, Tony Wilson’s Burn Down the Cornfield, Ford Pier’s Strength of Materials, Annie Lou, and Peggy Lee’s Echo Painting. Meredith is now also leading her own projects including Like the Mind, Listen Listen, and the Vancouver Improvised Arts Society.
Calgary-born violinist Parmela Attariwala interweaves life as a performer-creator, academic, and music educator. Parmela trained formally in violin performance at Indiana University and in Bern, Switzerland, and studied ethnomusicology at the School of Oriental and African Studies (UK) and the University of Toronto (Ph.D.). Her creative work explores the liminal space between musical genres, artistic disciplines, and identities.
Lukas Pearse is a Bassist/ Media Artist/ Composer / Sound Editor in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Since 2015, Lukas Pearse has served as the Artistic Director of the Upstream Music Association, founded in 1990, committed to the presentation of new compositions for improvising musicians, with a focus on large ensembles, as well as presenting the annual Open Waters Festival of New and Improvised Music.
Kim Barlow is an enduring presence in the Canadian indie-folk scene. A creative and eccentric songwriter, skillful on guitar and clawhammer banjo, she’s recorded seven albums of her own work, earned two Juno nominations (solo and with string band Annie Lou), and has many collaborations, including improvising quartet, Quilting, with Brian Borcherdt, Mairi Chaimbeul and Sahara Jane.
