Joshua Abrams developed his voice in the rich ferment of the 1990s Chicago music world, participating heavily across the city’s jazz, experimental & rock scenes. Since 2011 Joshua Abrams has toured North America & Europe with a shifting-line up of musicians as ‘Natural Information Society’. Since its creation in 2010, Natural information Society has released three albums: Natural Information in 2010, Represencing in 2012 and Magnetoception in 2015. His music moves in regular but slow rhythmic paces, alternating contemplative spaces and group improvisation, combining ancient and modern instrumentation: from electric guitar to gimbri (three-string African bass plucked lute). His album Magnetoception was named the #3 recording of 2015 by The Wire Magazine and the #2 experimental album of the year by Pitchfork.
