Fire Museum Presents: Yeison Landero

If you’re talking about cumbia royalty, there is no higher court than that of Andrés Landero — long considered the king of cumbia across the world for his contributions to the tropical genre. Yeison, his grandson, caught his Andrés’ attention at the age of 7, when he displayed not just a raw talent for interpreting melodies, but also a pure love for the music — un corazón cumbiambero.

Yeison grew up surrounded by music. In his early years, his home was visited by musicians of the highest stature: Alfredo Gutiérrez, Lizandro Meza, Calixto Ochoa, Enríquez Díaz, Los Gaiteros de San Jacinto… innumerable distinguished folk figures performed around his kitchen table. The first band he performed in was with Andrés Landero himself — he and his sister were introduced as “los nietos de Andrés Landero”, performing cumbia at festivals, concerts, and fairs across Colombia.

Yeison has dedicated his life to the genre and the instrument of his family legacy, in the spirit of Andrés, and he is rightly called the heir to cumbia. He lights up every stage he plays on.

Bowerbird welcomes back Laraaji, a key figure in the evolution of ambient music whose distinctive sound has been captivating listeners for decades. Philadelphia-born and New Jersey-raised, Laraaji has pursued spiritual transcendence through music since the mid-1970s. After years of developing an aesthetic shaped by Eastern philosophies and transcendental research in his longtime Harlem home, Laraaji’s breakthrough came when Brian Eno discovered him busking in Washington Square Park in 1979, improvising celestial meditations on his electric zither. This encounter led to a collaboration on Eno’s influential Ambient series, resulting in the 1980 album Day of Radiance.

Since then, Laraaji has become a defining figure in new age and ambient music, known for his commitment to hand-crafted sounds over synthesizers and his embrace of a human presence in his performances. Whether playing monochord instruments, singing, or using electronics-kissed percussion, his music remains rooted in a cosmic African-American tradition. His soundscapes are as hypnotically beautiful as they are rich with moments of tension and dissonance, bringing depth to his trance-inducing explorations. For over four decades, Laraaji’s work has continued to evolve, inviting listeners into deep states of reflection while remaining grounded in a deeply personal musical journey.

Event Horizon presents Christopher McNulty, Rose Actor – Engel (Apologist) and Dimension Step

Christopher McNulty is a multi-instrumentalist, designer and composer from Princeton, New Jersey. His arrangements, largely ambient, produce thematic soundscapes using field recordings, modular synthesizers, stringed instruments and found sound via improvisational and automatic techniques. He works mostly alone in a basement next to the washer and dryer and sometimes one cat.

Rose Actor-Engel (Apologist) is a Philadelphian musician and composer. She uses synthesizer, tape and field recordings to create ambient and experimental music, implementing specific rules and protocols to determine structure.

Dimension Step is the synth focused version of Dorety Brothers. It is much about moods, atmospheres, some noise and melodies too, deriving our sounds from standard synths, modular analog synths, digital piano and even some electronic percussion. Ambience to syncopation and arpeggiation, we tend to improvise within a loose framework of tempo, key, mode and time signature or maybe absence of time signature and tempo.The Event Horizon concert series features Electronic, Avant Garde, and Experimental music along with the work of live video, laser and analog projection artists. The concerts are always free and open to all.
