This is an exciting and innovative group that creates a forest of sound and texture with just two people.
GARTNER plays composed guitar and bass loops live, switching instruments within the peices to form the illusion of a number of players at once.
GREAT BOB SCOTT'S infamous drumming is spiced with electronic triggering, samples, and a floor full of clay flowerpots and percussion.
Dense multitracked soundscapes composed by
GARTNER, and live video projections augment their live shows.
The two members of WHIPPOORWILL have been part of a number of high profile acts over the years. They both toured Europe and North America as members of Canada's legendary "LOOK PEOPLE", and appeared in recordings, magazines, television shows, rock videos, and both American, and Canadian
LOLLAPALOOZA festivals with the group in 1992.
In the electric-jazz world, TOM WALSH'S swamp-jazz collective N.O.M.A. featured BOB and CHRIS in some of their reknowned live performances. The duo were also once the rhythm section for Toronto's EXCALCEOLATORS, recording a fine jazz/dub cd and appearing in many jazz festivals, including an opening spot with MEDESKI MARTIN AND WOOD.
BOB can be heard in the jungle/improv group: ASTROGROOVE, with JONO GRANT, and RICHARD UNDERHILL. CHRIS is also a member of the award winning east indian/jazz ensemble TASA.
WHIPPOORWILL have perfomed with POLMO POLPO at the grand re-opening of Toronto's Drake Hotel, filmed a show at the MOD CLUB THEATRE whilst opening for NASH THE SLASH, and recently played at a celebration for the Canadian debut of CRISPIN GLOVER'S new film "WHAT IS IT".
Currently, aside from WHIPPOORWILL, GARTNER and SCOTT are members of (BARENAKED LADIES keyboardist) KEVIN HEARN'S group: THINBUCKLE, and
ORCO MUTO with (GOBLIN keyboardist) MAURIZIO GUARINI.
