UNPREDICTABLE SERIES PRESENTS
✦ Mexican Confluences ✦ Sunday 15 November · Cafe OTO, London

We’re delighted to invite you to our next Unpredictable Series night at Café OTO. The evening brings together Mexico City and London through free improvisation, sound and live visuals.

For the first time in London, the Mexico City duo, saxophonist Eli Piña and double bassist and Adriana Camacho present their new album. Since 2021 they’ve brought together two generations of Mexico City’s free jazz and improvisation scene, in a dialogue that explores identity, intimacy and the complexities of being human. Their music moves between tenderness and tension, humour and vulnerability, sometimes delicate and sometimes confrontational. They’ve performed at Feria Internacional del Libro de Minería, Café Jazzorca and Sesiones Bárbaras, and collaborated with Jeff Platz, Germán Bringas and Remi Álvarez. London-based visual artist Pierre Bouvier Patron works across analogue film and digital video, playing with projectors, light and colour, alongside the musicians.

Opening the night, long-time collaborators and Unpredictable Series cofounders Steve Beresford and Blanca Regina bring together piano, objects, electronics, voice and visuals. Blanca’s visuals were filmed in Mexico during her many trips to Oaxaca, where she has led projection mapping workshops and performances. Steve Beresford has been a central figure in British and international improvised music for over fifty years. He has played with Derek Bailey, Evan Parker, Han Bennink and John Zorn, and worked with Christian Marclay, The Slits and Thurston Moore. His discography runs to around 500 releases.
