Eric Chasalow is a composer known for both electro-acoustic music and music for traditional instruments.  Among the last generation to work at the original Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center, since 1990 he has directed BEAMS, the Brandeis Electro-Acoustic Music Studio. Eric’s music is programmed throughout the world and he holds awards from the Guggenheim Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the American Academy of Arts and Letters.  The Library of Congress established an Eric Chasalow Collection in 2009, and his music may be found on a number of record labels, including New World Records, and his own, Suspicious Motives Records.  A library edition of his complete works for solo instrument and electronics was released in 2015 for his 60th birthday (available through Tfront.com).

Eric is the Irving G. Fine Professor of Music and the Dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at Brandeis University.

Kristian Josifoski (b. 1996) is a composer and percussionist based in Boston who's interests include: integrating elements of the musical vernacular into a new music idiom, using music as a metaphor for the philosophical concept of difference and repetition, enjoys working with crossfades, proportionality resonance and composed theatre.  

He earned his B.M. in Music Composition at Valparaiso University, and studied composition and theory with Benjamin Krause and Sky Macklay. Kristian has attended workshops and masterclasses by Stefan Ashbury, Joshua Rifkin, Tonia Ko, Jake Runestad, Gaudete Brass, Oystein Baadsvik, Stefon Harris, and Spektral Quartet. He earned his M.A. in Composition at NEC, and studied with John Mallia and Stratis Minakakis.

Matthew Golombisky is a USA-born, Buenos Aires-living acoustic & electric bassist, composer, improviser, conductor, and educator who also wears many hats like the director/founder of Chicago-based independent record label ears&eyes Records, conductor & artistic director of youth orchestra, Orquesta Creer Es Crear, in Avellaneda, Argentina, curriculum developer, teaching artist and board member of 501(C)3 non-profit Institute for Creative Music and in the past has taught in schools such as SPACE, Mynah Music, Hilldale, Asheville Music schools, stage managed for Pitchfork Music Festival, Hideout Block Party, The Swell Season, Peter, Bjørn & John, DJ-ed/produced radio for WNUR 89.3FM, curated an annual ears&eyes Festivals, ideated for Clorox, and wrote, composed and directed musical theatre for Bizzo!. 

Matthew has lived and been active in music, festival, and film scenes in the Bay Area, Chicago, New Orleans, Buenos Aires, New York state, and Asheville NC, as well as toured the USA and Europe with bands such as IfCM, NOMO, Zing!, Jhelisa, GKduo, WATIV, QMRplus, more. 

Recently, AllAboutJazz and writer Jakob Baekgaard recently called Matthew a modern “renaissance man” (the article has more than 15,000 views/reads). He is a forward moving, fast acting, and busy artist. Between his acoustic/electric bass performing, commissioned compositions (including his work on Australian singer/songwriter Via Tania’s latest album, featuring his Tomorrow Music Orchestra, his film scoring contributions to Argentine director Alejo Domínguez’s feature film, La Soñada, or creating improvisation teaching supplements for the Institute for Creative Music), directing, filming and editing music videos and/or release trailers (ie. Nate Lepine, TMO, Quintopus, Matija Dedic, blink.), creating layout design work and/or photography for websites and albums (e&e.com, Matija Dedic, Hood Smoke, Pedway, Quintopus), conducting, directing and composing for at-risk youth orchestra, Orquesta Creer Es Crear in Argentina where they performed in the tango-famed Teatro Roma, founding/directing Chicago-based indie label, ears&eyes Records (2017 marks ten years), and now releasing his newest double EP cassette, Cuentos Vol. 1 & 2, just maybe he can back AllAboutJazz’s forceful claim.

Matthew's undergraduate studies at the University of North Carolina at Asheville led to a B.A. in Jazz Studies/Bass Performance with an emphasis on 20th Century Classical music & theory, while earning the Distinction in Music Award, and masters studies to a M.M. in (classical) Composition from the University of New Orleans after a brief stint at Northwestern University after Hurricane Katrina swept through New Orleans in August 2005.

Matthew’s discography includes over 50 recordings featuring his performance, compositions, conducting, film scoring, artwork/design, photography, and/or production.
