Maker Faire Bay Area 2009

Cigar Box+Tape Loop=Drone Sounds

Location: Music Noise

I use hand made cigar box guitars, piezo pickups, and cassette tape loops, along with some guitar pedals, to create a flowing, folky, noisy drone. I try to draw on everything from the blues to punk, and use that to promote DIY instruments and cassette hacking. Audience participation is encouraged.

Cole Willsea

My name is Cole and I make folk/drone music. My aim with experimental music is to use home-made or manipulated gear in a live setting, both to promote DIY activity, as well as to provide visual accompaniment for the sounds I am making.
