MIKE HALDEMAN
mike haldeman spends much of his days searching and learning, trying to uncover unexpectedly joyful and emotionally potent sounds from unexpected places using unexpected methods. mike takes the raw materials of guitars and clarinets, and through a labyrinthine course of cables and computers sculpts sound-worlds that may resemble anything from howling gusts of wind, to gentle cascades of water, to a room full of quietly glittering miniature music boxes, to unsettling industrial clamor and clanging metal. haldeman often molds his solo sets to interact with the spaces and environments enclosing them, creating one-of-a-kind performances aimed toward capturing the specificity of the feeling of that day, and that space, and those in attendance. he is so grateful to be sharing his solo set at kingston’s old dutch church for the very first time.
