tu:NER Plays ProgDay 2023!
tu:NER is a musical trio comprised of TREY GUNN, MARKUS REUTER, and PAT MASTELOTTO, that celebrates the music of King Crimson’s Double Duo era (1998 to 2003), and the bands TU (Mastelotto and Gunn), KTU (Mastelotto, Gunn, and accordionist Kimmo Pohjonnen), TUNER (Mastelotto and Reuter), TUNISIA (Mastelotto and thereminist Pamelia Stickney), The ProjeKcts (featuring Gunn and Mastelotto as well as other KC members) and Stick Men (Mastelotto, Reuter and Tony Levin).
All the different influences coming together through these three artists are notable for their endlessly creative approach to*music, and for the highly skilled musicianship of the players involved. Of course, the creative impulse of these three musos would never be fully satisfied by simply revisiting their back catalogues. Audiences will be treated to new pieces, as well as their characteristic improvisations or "instant compositions" where the three musicians listen to each other with their ears and souls, creating magic musical concoctions on the spot, away from the traditional rules of rock or jazz improvisation.
Twenty years since the disbanding of the Double Duo, the spirit of the ProjeKcts is finally back on the road with Gunn, Reuter and Mastelotto.
