Emerging from a lengthy incubation in classical music, violist/improviser/composer Heather Bentley is creating sonic meditations, rituals, and happenings through collaborations both spontaneous and pre-planned. Her close associates Kaley Lane Eaton (voice, electronics, composer) and Leanna Keith (flutes, composer) make up the Seattle-based threesome known as Kin of the Moon that is at the nexus of a large informal collective of like-minded composer/ creators. An improvisation-centric, technology-friendly chamber music troupe, Kin of the Moon explores sonic rituals, promotes cross-pollination of genres, emphasizes the communicative power of specific performance locales and celebrates the creativity that multiplies itself through the collaboration of performers and composers. The artists of Kin of the Moon devote their lives to reaching higher vibrational levels through sound creation.
