Transparent Productions presents bassist Brandon Lopez, touring in support of his new solo bass recording on the TAO Forms label, "vilevilevilevilevilevilevilevile". Don't miss this!!!

BRANDON LOPEZ is a NEW YORK CITY based bassist and composer who’s work is a syncretism of disparate styles and musical processes used to extend and transgress the vocabulary of the double bass.

The Cleveland Review of Books writes “This is virtuosity in the sense that we hear on this record countless textures from Lopez—extended techniques, bowed strings that unearth wild harmonics, plucked rumblings, and low funk rootings—each conjured from a deep sense of what is being called for in a moment. This is virtuosity as vocabulary, a total command of texture, subtlety, and a depth that can be reached into.”

He’s collaborated with an exhaustive list of great musicians and thinkers. He’s was a featured soloist with the New York Philharmonic. He’s been the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships (Van Lier Fellowship, Jerome Residency at Roulette Intermedium, Artist in Resident at Issue Project Room, Doris Duke Charitable Trust, The Robert D. Bielecki Foundation). His collaborations with Gerald Cleaver and Fred Moten were featured NYTimes best of Jazz 2022.
