Poetics Orchestra

New York City-based musician and poet Drew Gardner uses an adaptation of Butch Morris’s con­duc­tion sys­tem to create wild, spontaneous conductions of improvised music played by indie rock, folk and jazz players combined with poets performing their original work. 

Drew Gardner is a poet and multi-instrumentalist. He spent his early years as an avant-garde jazz drummer. He has written three books of poetry, the latest of which is Chomp Away.
