巻上公一
音楽家、詩人、プロデューサー。静岡県熱海市生まれ。 ヒカシューのリーダーとして1978年から現在に至るまで作詩作曲はもちろん声の音響やテルミン、口琴を使ったソロワークやコラボレーションも精力的に行う。類いまれな歌のセンス、声の可能性の追求、斬新な切り口と諧謔精神を備え、歌謡曲から歌ともつかぬ歌まで、そのパフォーマンスは縦横無尽且つ自然体。最近はシアターピース（代表は宇宙語「チャクルパ」シリーズ）にも着手。シベリアのトゥバ共和国に伝わる喉歌ホーメイの紹介者、第一人者であり、指導者としても多くの歌手を育てている。

The Uminari artists explore a blend of acoustic and electric sounds of old and new sonic languages. There is a restlessness at times to this trio that reflects life in the city. Yet glimpses of natural – that natural voice of things find their way through the collectives freely improvised utterances. This music does not shout at you, but rather calls you into conversation with a little debate and a little laughter.

The works presented tonight continue JOLT’s exploration of how inclusive collaborations draw forth new ideas and nourish the open fields of the avant-garde.
