ABOUT
Sally Gates is a New Zealand guitarist, currently based in New York. Her new instrumental trio, Titan to Tachyons, have just released their debut album, 'Cactides' through Nefarious Industries. Kenny Grohowski (Secret Chiefs 3, Brand X, etc) and Matt Hollenberg (John Zorn, Cleric) make up the rhythm section in this avant-rock/jazz metal trio. Their debut was recorded with Colin Marston at his Thousand Caves studio in their home base of New York, and features Trevor Dunn (Mr Bungle, Fantômas, etc) as a guest on bass for the closing track, 'Everybody's Dead, Dave'. The album is now available to purchase here.
Sally often performs live in NYC with improvisational ensembles, such as Triphammer (a trio with Larry Kwartowitz and Johnny DeBlase), and other musicians such as Trevor Dunn, Greg Fox, John Longstreth, and recently at a John Zorn improv night. She has become known as an adept, experimental player from these performances, and her prior work with the experimental metal band Orbweaver.
Other live appearances have included performing with Buke and Gase, Regi Wooten, and touring internationally as a session member for Gigan and Success Will Write Apocalypse Across the Sky. Always open to different musical experiences, she has worked with performance artist Naama Tsabar at Art Basel Miami. She provided guest solos on the title track of doom masters Northern Crown's debut album, and is endorsed by PRS Guitars, Orange Amps, and Asterope Cables.
