Love Cry

Free Jazz saxophone dynamo **Tim O’Dwyer** (bucketrider, MIUC) returns for a brief visit from his home in Singapore assembling an all star line-up including **Dave Brown** (Gtr), **Maria Moles** (Drms)** Mick Meagher **(Bs) **Reuben Lewis** (Trp) and **Mat Watson** (Electronics) to perform **LOVE CRY\_Ecstatic Ballads for Broken Hearts.**  **LOVE CRY **is an ongoing performance project that reimagines sentimental Asian ballads—particularly Thai Luk Thung (Thai Country Music)—through the ecstatic, explosive vocabulary of free jazz, inspired by the work of Albert Ayler.
