John Paul Jones (and Sons of Chipotle) to Perform at Big Ears 2024 

 

 

JPJ and Anssi Karttunen are delighted to be bringing Sons Of Chipotle to Big Ears Festival in March 2024 in Knoxville, TN.

Sons of Chipotle cover an uncommonly vast area of the musical map and both John Paul Jones and Anssi Karttunen are thrilled to be making their US debut performance at Big Ears Festival in March 2024.

It is incredibly rare to find two of the finest musicians in the world improvising together, but following 6 sold out concerts in South Korea and Japan, the next stop for Sons of Chipotle is Knoxville, Tennessee. Both musicians are known to be curious minds, always ready to learn and to discover. When they improvise, borders disappear, they are free to migrate beyond prejudices, across continents. In a world full of conflicts and displaced people, Sons of Chipotle want music to be a place of openness.

Sons of Chipotle features John Paul Jones on piano and electronics, with Anssi Karttunen on cello and electronics.

Both John and Anssi will also be performing solo concerts during Big Ears 2024. Big Ears 2024 will offer the rare opportunity to experience John’s fertile, musical imagination as it unfolds. For his solo concert, John will present a set of grand piano, mandolin, bass and electronics, with improvised solo performances and occasional forays into the past.

Oh if Laurie Anderson and JPJ could find themselves on stage together, who knows what they might conjure!

JPJ solo concert!  This should be amazing. Hope this will be streamed/recorded for those who can't attend. I'm not that big on attending festivals.

Well that is something to look forward to! Crossing my fingers that he revisits a little material from Zooma or The Thunderthief.

I seriously need to consider attending. This music isn't my cup of tea but it's JPJ performing!
