SUDDEN INFANT / JOKE LANZ
Born in Switzerland and currently operating out of Berlin, Joke Lanz is a prolific artist working with sound and performance since 1986. His activities in various solo and collective guises (for music groups, radio projects, theater and dance endeavors) have included Sudden Infant, Schimpfluch-Gruppe, WAL, Catholic Boys In Heavy Leather, Jaywalker, Opposite Opponents, MK Selection, Psychic Rally, The Eye of Arghhh, Tell and countless others. He has also toured the world over with various acolytes and has released his works on some of the most prominent record labels in the noise underground (Schimpfluch, Tochnit Aleph, Blossoming Noise, Entr'acte, Artware, SSSM, Klanggalerie, Some Bizarre, iDeal Rec and many more).
Sudden Infant is Lanz' longest-running and most enduring project. Its inception in 1989 was borne out of Lanz' urgent drive to combine sound art and performance into one visceral whole -- by doing so, his performances frequently bring forth elements and influences from Dada, actionism, Fluxus, noise, and punk, as well as some of industrial music's most trenchant performers.
A Sudden Infant performance will typically be anchored by two main characteristics: the use of minimal electronic equipment on one side, on the other a strong focus on the human body, its reduced essence, and the sound-worlds it contains and spews forth. Sudden Infant is a vehicle for Lanz to run acoustic and psychic elements to their end by focusing on their bare essentials. Thus doing, he establishes an extremely tense aesthetic of performance, and tears down any preconceived barriers between noise, performance, improvisation, and electronic music.

Family Battle Snake
Family Battle Snake is Bill Kouligas, Greek born, currently residing in Berlin. Recently he took part of SIXX: SUDDEN INFANT's 20th anniversary celebration at Ausland/Berlin. Bill runs his own Label (pan-act.com) with releases so far by Mark Durgan, Andy Ortman, Astro, Joke Lanz & Rudolf Eber. From May 2009 Family Battle Snake is sharing stage with Alan Licht, Aki Onda, Cluster, Merzbow, William Bennett, Ex-Cocaine, Usurper and many more. A hardcore trip into analogue synth research, no bullshit. -Hair Entertainment
