2008年結成アコースティックピアノトリオのエレクトリックサイド。 インプロヴィゼーション、多数のオリジナルのレパートリーからエレユカ仕様にリアレンジした楽曲を演奏する。また初回ライブではBilly Holiday の名盤「Lady in Satin」を全曲カバーし話題となった。 阿吽の呼吸で重なりあうアンサンブルは中毒性があり再演を望む声多数。要注目のトリオ。

WOBBLY / Jon Leidecker has been producing music under the name Wobbly since 1990, improvising with recordings to produce music which inherently resists the act of being captured. Recent performances deploy a battery of mobile devices driven by their built-in microphones, reacting instantly with error-prone variations on the notes and sounds they believe they are hearing: a tightly-knit orchestra with inhuman reflexes, resulting in structures which the human performer influences more than controls. Your phone is the instrument, and your phone is always listening. Wobbly’s live and studio collaborations with Negativland, Dieter Moebius & Tim Story, Matmos, Fred Frith, John Oswald, Thomas Dimuzio, Huun-Huur-Tu, Sagan and the Freddy McGuire Show compliment live mix media collages broadcast twice a month on KPFA FM’s Over The Edge radio program.
