Since the early 1980s, UK born, Oakland, CA-based maverick multi-instrumentalist Coulter has directed, recorded, produced, and played with numerous artists such as Tom Waits, The Pogues, Kronos Quartet, Laurie Anderson, Yoko Ono, Wes Anderson, Marianne Faithfull, Damon Albarn, and Gorillaz. Credits include: Musical Director: The Black Rider (Robert Wilson/Tom Waits), Monkey: Journey to the West (Gorillaz), Double Fantasy Live, Rain Dogs Revisited, Discreet + Oblique: The Music of Brian Eno, Twisted Christmas, In Dreams: David Lynch Revisited, Jim Jarmusch Revisited, and Swordfishtrombones Revisited. Composer: An Anatomy Act (Anna Furse), A Thousand Splendid Suns (A.C.T.), Hamlet (A.C.T.), Ghosts (Williamstown Theatre Festival, Seattle Rep), Medea (Legion of Honor), Bakkhai (Legion of Honor), The Eldership Project (Improbable), The Walker (new longform composition, 2020), Little City Gardens (film score, 2022), Air Loom (Peder Bjurman/ Mark Holthusen, 2022).
In 2020 Coulter collaborated with Julia Kent (and Seb Rochford) as a trio in the making of an EP through file sharing via the internet for trestlerec.com and their From Isolation series. This led to an ongoing virtual sonic collaboration between Kent and Coulter. This is this first time they have performed together in real time and space.
