Pollen Count

Pollen Count is a new trio of Lou on vocals & loops, Richard Knight on no-input mixer and Keith Jafrate on saxophone, three very different musical personalities each with their own approach, and all active in the Calder Valley’s vibrant music community. Using a mixture of prepared material and improvisation, their music is not fixed in one place, and can swerve from fierce abstraction into a lyrical groove.

Lou performs solo as BLT 63, and her background is in film and performance. She’s a commanding singer, intense and theatrical.

Richard Knight is the genius of no-input science who manipulates noise like a virtuoso soloist. He has played in all kinds of line-ups, with a host of different improvisers.

Keith Jafrate plays with Trio Uroboro, orfeo 5, Wolfscarers, Hornweb and Murmurists. He’s a lyrical player, whether playing free or in time, always in search of the song-line.
