Greg Malcolm from New Zealand, is a guitarist with an extensive music history. He has composed, performed and recorded music for short films, theatre, children’s performance, radio plays, art exhibitions and released many CDs. He grew up playing in Velvet Underground inspired rock bands like the rest of the New Zealand underground scene and at around 20 years old became interested in experimental and improvised music. Presently he is concentrating his solo simultaneously played multiple guitar performance.

Greg Malcolm's solo simultaneously played multiple guitar performance, is a mesmerising experience involving three guitars played with hands, feet and all manner of household objects. His sound is a beautifully paced, lush world of chimes, drones, twangs, scrapes and thumps. This impressive act of plate-spinning manifests itself, when amplified drones clash with acoustic fingerpicking and foot-tapped percussion. Observe the various practices Malcolm undertakes in order to create his network of simultaneously-propagated sounds - you see him playing guitar (relatively) normally while rusty springs dangle from the machineheads onto metal contacts, creating amplified blips, while a foot manipulates another instrument independently. and while it's undoubtedly fascinating to watch the guitarist at work, you can't help but be struck by how absurd it is as a spectacle.
Importantly though, it sounds great.
