Paul Bright, Winston Salem, NC
Paul Bright was born in Cleveland, Ohio and graduated from the University of South Carolina.
As an artist, Bright is interested mostly in permutations of “the found.” Having adopted collage early as his primary approach, he continues to employ it in both material works often formed from found and de-collaged elements and in aural collages composed from sound he records. His work has been shown in the US, Germany, England, Italy, Switzerland, and Canada, and is part of several museum and numerous private collections.
His non-artist professional life began with work in art museums while in college, and has additionally encompassed tenures in history museums and arts centers as well as art galleries. He has worked as an exhibition and design director and curator. This multifaceted experience coalesces in his current role as the Director of the Charlotte and Philip Hanes Gallery at Wake Forest University.
Eugene Chadbourne, Greensboro, NC
The task of describing the life and work of Eugene Chadbourne (aka Doc Chad) is more than daunting. His music is so unique, and his output over more than 40 years of music-making is so vast, as to defy description To that must be added so many other skills and important contributions to music. He is truly a Renaissance man, a rebel among rebels.
The list of artists he has collaborated with runs into pages. Camper Van Beethoven, John Zorn, Aki Takase, Jimmy Carl Black, and the Violent Femmes are just a handful, appearing in clubs, galleries and festivals and in one case, a command performance with Tony Trischka for William S. Burroughs. His favorite setting besides solo is in duo with a reliable drummer, a list that from him not only includes the aforementioned Black but Han Bennink, Paul Lovens, Ed Cassady (Spirit), Monty Oxymoron (The Damned), Famoudou Don Moye (The Art Ensemble of Chicago), Manni Neuimier (Guru Guru) and Ernie Durawa (Sir Douglas Quintet, Texas Tornadoes).
He has also written widely about music, inventing the touring diary when he described his travels with Shockabilly in 1984, and creating books including I Hate the Man Who Runs This Bar and the 2016 autobiographical Dreamory. He is one of the founders of the "low-fi" or "low tech" movement that came to see thousands of artists creating and releasing their own cassettes (and now CDs) on their own labels. He has also inspired many as a creator of instruments. His electric rake has motivated many artists to build new instruments and expand the sonic landscape. When you combine all of the above with his penchant for speaking out loud and clear about what exactly the hell seems to be going on, you have an unforgettable artist whose connection to folk is both deep and wide.

Justin Holt, Thomasville, NC
Justin Holt is an artist and musician who lives and works in North Carolina. He is an Avant-garde saxophonist, composer, improviser, painter, and founder of the pink lady apple house.
David Menestres, Durham, NC
David Menestres plays double bass, though he’s not a bass player. David Menestres writes words, though he’s not a writer. David Menestres produces and hosts a radio show, though he’s not a DJ. David Menestres writes music, though he’s not a composer. David Menestres makes art, though he’s not an artist. Mostly, David Menestres is just a bit of energy trapped in a decaying flesh suit like everyone else on this empty rock circling a sun in a solar system circling other systems in an ever-expanding universe.
Benoit Moreau, Renens, CH
Born in 1979, Benoit Moreau is a sound artist, instrumental and electroacoustic music composer. He plays piano, clarinet and live electronics. He is active in the field of experimental and improvised music, performance, sound installation, film and theater. Benoit Moreau is also leading a project in artistic research at Lausanne's University of Music called Opera?. His interest for new artistic forms – around sound or not – drives him to find new strategies to create and new ways to collaborate with other people and confront his intuitions to a group. His Rue du Nord Ensemble which he initiated a long time ago is dedicated to new music and all it's variety of forms and is symbolic of these aspirations.
