Swiss/Italian improvised music duo Ige*Timer are in town for a series of shows starting tonight at the Open Ears Series upstairs at the Blue Nile. Simon Berz and Klaus Janek play a mix of electronic and natural instruments, and tonight they’ll be joined by trombone player Rick Trolsen and guitarist Chris Alford. Wednesday at 8 at Zeitgeist, they’ll play with Aurora Nealand and Simon Lott, and Thursday at 10:30 at the Allways Lounge, they’ll be joined by David Torkanowsky and Rex Gregory. Here’s an excerpt from Ige*Timer on its own in concert.
