Charlotte Keeffe’s RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW ~

An Invitation to Creative Freedom for All!

​

Described by Jazzwise as "avant-garde for all," Charlotte Keeffe’s Music-making is a vibrant tapestry of textures and gestures, inspired by everything, everywhere, and everyone ~ RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW!

​

Keeffe’s passionate approach to free improvisation invites listeners into a raw, expressive world where anything is possible…

Her trumpets are Sound Brushes ~ painting bold sonic landscapes alongside her musical brothers, Ashley John Long on double bass, Ben Handysides on drums and Moss Freed on guitar, forging a rich breeding ground for Musical liberation.

​

'…Overtly over-blowing, splitting, splattering, squirming, squeaking and squealing out ALIVE! Howling and hooting, chomping and chaffing… 

 

Dusty, distorted, flimsy, fragile, manic, ghostly, guttural sound strokes rip through whirlwinds and whirlpools of wholesome gooey-sound-dough!

 

A turbulent tease, staggering, swaying, abruptly plunging into intentional vagueness… 

 

A messy emporium of raw, raucous realness. 

​

Alive. 

​

RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW. 

​

It is as it is…'​​​
